I've Got Enough Heartaches

The body is a safe space.

Until it isn't.

I'm still trying to pick up the pieces.

Weak and tired.

Taking it one day at a time.

One step into the beyond.

Vulnerability takes its toll.

The physical and the psychological.

Entwined in a fight for normality.

I seek that safe space.

But the pieces are shattered.

And a fog enslaves my mind.

The body is a safe space.

Until it isn't.
