Dispossessed

by isobel-g

I have to make myself empty; starve myself away. I have to exist less, I can't stand my existence. I'm taking up too much space. I cut myself to fit, small enough for your shadow. Make myself scarce before you can give me the slip. So there's less of me to give and less of me to take. How small should I make myself so that I'm not too much.
