#eggshell
fragile as eggshell perhaps even more so a weak person turns to war. Judgement far from the mind or perhaps not so a running away hiding behind division and hatred fragile as eggshell perhaps even more so.

fragile as eggshell
Picking my words carefully on the field of eggshells. Knowing that if I told you the truth you'd leave. Like so many times before.. My struggles are seperating us. Leaving me walking on the ground cracking with every step. A faked laugh is worth your smile. A proud hug that I cannot live up to. With a heavy heart I know I've failed you..

Dear mum
you drank it all. alone. even though there's nothing left in the bottle, it is you that feels empty, transparent, frail, like an eggshell that your mother found in the chicken that your father killed, that didn't have the chance of the frying pan at least. you drank it all. alone. no Juliet around, no Shakespeare no talent, no tale. you drank it all. alone. no strippers, no angels, no thieves! you drank it all. some may call it messianic delusion syndrome, but I call it.. cheap Chardonnay. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbz9rIxZJBw

I am an egg shell broken and torn left alone when you no longer need me cracks in the sense I make or the jokes I think are funny once so pure holding life inside me you take all I have to give (but sometimes I give too much) here I am, a broken exterior left to wonder what will happen next I am an egg shell
