antioxidants, to help we are poisoning ourselves with every breath the records in the corner crumbling underneath the dust in their crates crunchy warm voices bounce off the sunrise spinning around and crashing like cymbals mist at 7 am and a cup of black coffee with two teaspoons of sugar far away from life in a corner, under a desk all my friends want to be cool i want to hide and be happy in a field with a mug of steamed milk, with a sweet person who tells me many things that make me smile and query, and discuss they will be the kind of person i would braid my hair around when i was listening intently, who would interrupt themselves to point out a bird startling and spreading it's wings or how beautiful winter is under the surface of the sadness how death is somehow majestic, in the way that the earth can bring itself back to life after it has lain still and alone for many months, she can still yield all the possibilities of fruits in spring he seemed confused by this idea i was not upset by this i was just a bit melancholy but not because of him because of everything around us he sees it as cold and uncomfortable he doesn't understand why i walk outside every night to teach my body to acclimate to the conditions, this winter so i can accept it and become it without freezing over inside and learn to love it as much as the warmth he rolls his eyes, they all do, they roll their eyes and turn away and ask why i don't put on more layers instead why not three sweaters instead of one why not fight it more, to keep your last skin thin and flawless i only have one left, i dunno one skin left, have to get it weathered quickly before life boomerangs back this skin is careless and has nothing left to care about she laughs until she's crying and holding her belly and she doesn't feel anything but tightening everything is corroding us from the inside out already i want to at least breathe in the direction of the moon once a night
