you smell like clean soap.
cold, soft hands
and skin that is wrinkled with worry.
your eyes shadow your cheeks.
i made you worry,
i'm so sorry
did i disappoint you today?
if you knew
what i know
would you care less?
i don't need a cup of water
no- i don't deserve one.
because my tiredness is made up of lies,
and my productivity is an endless maze of recycled warmth.
i am selfish.
i push myself underwater because i like the feeling of oxygen leaving my lungs.
GO AWAY
and
LEAVE ME ALONE
because
I HATE YOU
hello
your eyes seem to shadow your cheeks.
i made you worry,
but you smell like clean soap.
i'm so sorry.
did i disappoint you today?
