"dont let yourself break"
they say through hardened jaws
pulling their ropes tighter around you
never letting you b r e a t h e
because that would give you
too. much. power.
the moment you start to crack
they pull tighter and tighter
trying to keep your body together
but eventually
everyone
breaks
and everyone fails their test.

"dont let yourself break"
they say through hardened jaws
pulling their ropes tighter around you
never letting you b r e a t h e
because that would give you
too. much. power.
the moment you start to crack
they pull tighter and tighter
trying to keep your body together
but eventually
everyone
breaks
and everyone fails their test.
they never let you
mend yourself
before shattering your fragile bones.
