worrier

you say i’m a worry wart
my worries are not warts
my worries are tumors
growing in my brain
they are cancerous

mom

i would rather worry about your
drug habits
than imagine you hanging
in a closet

drowning

you are pushing me underwater
you show off your importance
i reach for a breath
you push me further
it does not belong to you alone
