When you have a toothache,
The dentist pulls it.
When you have a stomachache,
The doctor eases it.
When you have a headache,
Medicine soothes it.
When you have a backache,
The chiropractor fixes it.

So why is it...

There is no dentist, or doctor,
There is no medicine or chiropractor,
To heal this heartache?

I've ceased speaking to, mankind, my own species.
For: all o' the mischief within all o' these bodies
- has left me, here, pondering those ole' birch trees
- and about how they are where I, really, ought to be;
- far away from my species and from modern society.
"I really have to go, folks; the clock is getting near
- time I have a date with roaming white-tailed deer
- and raccoons! Yes; the time is coming, ever, so soon
- and I wouldn't wish to keep these creatures waiting..
- not even for one single moon. I won't see you soon
- and I hope that you'll all, completely, understand
- because I've become enthralled in a wild woodland:
- where no man has ever known as his home,
- where the unburdened buffalo used to roam;
- that is where I will build my beautiful home
- & all I'll have to worry about: snoopy, little drones."

i'm not scared of lots of things
heights
spiders
flying

when i was a child
clowns never made me cry

silence was always my friend
it was comfy and safe
but now it's tormenting
now it's frightening

nightmares having me waking up
in the middle of the night
with a racing heart and
tears in my eyes

pitch black eyes staring down at me;
i wasn't a human anymore
i was an object for someone elses' delight

i didn't scream
i didn't cry
silence silence silence
it's as if i died

he threw my shirt at me
so i could clean up the mess
he left behind

i wasn't scared of lots of things
heights
spiders
flying
they still don't scare me

but memories haunt me
and they tear me up inside

find me braver,
find me kinder
find me loving with
a wide-open heart
find me with flowers on my head
and forgiveness in my heart
find me alive,
find me in love
