I couldn’t remember the last time I looked at myself in the mirror. It really does felt like forever. I have been avoiding my own reflection to restrain myself from thinking. “When will I reach the point of perfection?” I couldn’t remember the last time I wrote a poem. But all I know of is that is what frustrates me the most. Every time I try, I would constantly rhyme. Oh goodness have I lost it? Why can’t I write? I couldn’t remember gulping my uneasiness down my throat anymore, They would all let out as a cry. Or a prickle of tear. Either it’s clammy hands, Or fidgeting around with my fingers. I can’t seem to get myself together. I won’t get a grip. Just bring me to my bed. Where I would wrap myself in a blanket. And sit still right there with my hollow mind. Along with the cracks that made me. Oh how divine shall this evening be.
