it's barely summer but i've forgotten how to breathe; i fall in love with strangers before they even speak.
entangled within the pulsating crowd like a fly trapped in a spider's web; questions are spun all around. inferiority screams in my ear & consumes all thoughts until i can't hear all the questions that are caught between threads of my insecurities, weaving around & around the fabric of my being - tightening its grip with everyone seeing me choking.
it's barely summer but i can feel winter's chill: each pump of my left ventricle, an exertion against will, leaves me ******* & frozen, still - but feeling like i could run before you could catch me. i watch the moon trade places with the sun, racing against time, but my day has still not yet begun.
