Is it part of my past if I can't quite get rid of it?
past
adj.
gone in time and no longer existing

So maybe all of the things that I thought were done with,
are part of my present,
present
noun.
the period of time now occurring.

Still able to show up at any moment and remind me that it never truly left;
only decided to give me a break for a while.
Maybe I am pitted against myself in the most dangerous way possible.
Taking myself to the breaking point,
but never going past it, because it's always funner the longer it goes on.
When will the low hit? Will the low hit?
Is it more fun to watch myself panic during the night wondering how things will fall apart, always walking on broken glass because even a small cut in the fabric would mean being torn to shreds. The ends being pulled until I am finally undone. Until I am finally done.
kind of long?
