I had this sick feeling in my stomach This pit in my chest It was telling me to go I felt an overwhelming sense of unrest It felt like my life was beginning It felt like my life was ending It feels like I’m dying In the slippery waters of the womb, Being born anew It feels like a blossom cracking open The hot sun on my bare chest I can’t quite understand But it feels like my bleeding heart is visible under my ******* My heart was restless, My mind, amuck I couldn’t understand the push and pull within me I was out of luck I didn’t have words, Just a smile of plaster It’s easy to say goodbye It’s hard to say hello— won’t you come into my heart?

It’s hard to say hello
I had this sick feeling in my stomach This pit in my chest It was telling me to go I felt an overwhelming sense of unrest It felt like my life was beginning It felt like my life was ending It feels like I’m dying In the slippery waters of the womb, Being born anew It feels like a blossom cracking open The hot sun on my bare chest I can’t quite understand But it feels like my bleeding heart is visible under my ******* My heart was restless, My mind, amuck I couldn’t understand the push and pull within me I was out of luck I didn’t have words, Just a smile of plaster It’s easy to say goodbye It’s hard to say hello— won’t you come into my heart?
