I'm currently evacuating, currently changing, no longer lingering in lullaby-scented halls and too big shoes. The walls have changed, you see, coated in posters of people I try to be but the walls know my real estate, my anxious being. They know my exterior is scared to invite you in, because not everyone can handle the mess within. They know on the inside, I'm dripping blood, ink, my mind, like an overflowing sink, saturated with love, sunset pink.
