Pink skies looked upon by tired eyes.

Black lines splitting up a conflicted mind.

wake up early

her family's
breakfast.

Fit
Patterns spiral on
like the hands of a clock.
My mind dissects the mechanism
to learn where I fit in.
I fear if I should find myself,
then I shall be forgot.
Where will I fit in?
Sometimes I scour the walls of my room
desperately searching for where I fit in,
If I lost count of all my lovers
& my very dearest friends.
I'd always be waiting for the bottom to drop
& wondering where I fit in.
Twelve moons have passed
with you
& I do not know where I fit in.
Like twelve years ago
in school,
I did not know where I fit in.
The twelfth I shall pack to travel North,
a brief moment of time to fit everyone in
to a world where people love me
precisely because I stand out.

It hurts

If we are to ever to end,
you will remember me
for how many times
I hurt you.

And I will remember
the way you always kept
the knife
beneath my neck.
