when things were about to fall into place
you came in at the last minute and whisk it away
rampaging through my brain trying to find the happy thoughts i once held
looking in the mirror had been painful
someone whose face was an imperfect balance
i forced a laugh from myself but failed
the words felt wrong in my mouths
i took in more breaths trying to regain composure
it was so shaming to be like this
it made my body scream to keep running but i was stunt
feeling the brittle freezing wind gush across my body
i felt everything with an icy clarity
as if the world was opening my skin
