I think that
the only reason
I fell asleep
that night
was because
your breath
became my lullaby
And the rhythmic thump
of your strong heart
was louder
than anything
my head could conjure

I think that
the only reason
I stayed asleep
that night
was because
you were all I could dream of
And you are
the farthest thing
from a nightmare

I think that
the only reason
I wanted to
wake up
that morning
was because
I knew
you would be there
And I was
right

I am so full of rage
and disappointment
because I can't figure out
why I am never good enough for myself.

I think I could start smoking and start dying
and stop caring and keep crying.

**** my skin,
tear
tear
tear it apart
with my anxious nails and teeth
and razor blades
I am my own brain surgeon
constantly picking
trying to figure out what is wrong with me.

I want you to take me into the woods again
mix my flesh with bark
and I can go home
****** with leaves in my hair
because sometimes there is no point in being good.
What is good, anyway?
