I have lung made of paper bags
and a spine made of glass.
I spend my life walking on thin ice,
knowing that if I slip I will break.
I can't walk with great posture,
because the weight on my shoulders.
My mind is full of cliche metaphors
and clouded with the stress of living.
The more I panic and my breathing increases,
the more my paper bags start to strain and crinkle.
The more I walk around with the weight I try to carry,
the risk of shattering my glass spine rises.
My eyes are closed,
and my hands are ***** from trying to dig myself up.
To stop my lungs from straining,
I stop myself from breathing.
To lessen the risk of my spine breaking,
I lay in bed and never move around.
I think I give up on writing. oh well.
