roaring beast. steam obsolete. i wish my hands. to see them fall apart. crackling dry. the crust in my eyes. moon oh please, let me be free, from this ******* heat 80 degrees. i thought i had grown, but it’s just the moss on the stone. my heart no longer beats with the rain. i just stay inside all day.
i look
her
in
the eyes
i see
no
reflection
i miss
the girl
i
used
to be
and if this is adult life
it would’ve been better to die
at seventeen
