i know only how to wear this body like an apology.
like i'm sorry i take up too much space.
like i'm sorry,
i don't feel small enough to fit into your hands.
i wear it like a sin.
like a prayer that never feels answered.
like confessions i keep trying to change.
i wear it like a broken commandment,
because i love thy neighbour,
but i hate myself.

MY GOD,
I HAVE INHALED ABANDONMENT FOR SO LONG,
THAT ANY SCENT OF LOVE IN THE AIR,
MAKES IT HARD FOR ME TO BREATHE.
PLUS,
THE TANKS OF OXYGEN ALWAYS SEEM TO BE MIXED WITH A HIGH DOSAGE OF PUSHING PEOPLE AWAY,
AND I WEAR THE MASKS SO OFTEN,
I FORGET I EVEN HAVE THEM ON.

Maybe we were meant to fall together
Maybe we were doomed to fall apart.

Don't forget who you were
Before the world tore you apart.

Don't forget who you were,
Before the world told you
who you should be

In you I lost myself,
In you I found myself

His soul was as colourful as a rainbow
And I,
I,
Am black and white
With a little bit of grey
Phia Nov 2016
Without you
I can be me.
Without you
I can breathe.
