for me

you can sit

in your car all you want

it won’t change who you are

and how you feel

you can give him the world in your mind

but your words spew hate,

and this endless search to grasp onto something…

anything…to

make you feel like you belong

is wearing you down.

you need to feel it

this shaking in your bones…

you closed your eyes when

what you needed was right in front of you.

tear down the walls of your past,

and just open

your

eyes.
