Safe
You’ve never given blood,
but you tried to pay
what you owed
with your own.
There are sunflowers in the dizziness,
drowning petals of light.
Because the darkness
doesn’t have
any answers, you
don’t need to doubt the truth:
I’m safe.
Like a sudden sanctuary from the storm,
I’m safe.
The rain drips sedation,
protects me from waking.
I’m safe.
So much pain in one place,
sleep through the worst.
Turn your face
to the west. The sun is
spinning in space.
It never rises, only stays.
written while listening to '23' by Jimmy Eat World on repeat
