Killing myself has always been a back burner option Been something floating in the foreground like an exit sign in a dimly lit room that I’ve never used See, I wake up every day and choose not to use it I decide it’s all worth it The way the cold makes my thighs red on a Friday night How the crisp winter breeze reminds me what it’s like to feel something How you made me feel good, past tense and bad present tense but **** isn’t it a gift to feel this range of emotions again I feel all this love and heartbreak that I never thought I would again I thought the winter wind made me numb but instead it made me realize how wonderfully alive I am I would never do anything to change that, I’ll never take the quick exit For that, havent I won, something?
