Cut it out and tear me down
like violent scenes in a horror film.
I said nothing like that to you,
and smiled all the time,
But your guilt stained hands touch
my head with the sights.
And I sleep in comas,
and slide down walls,
Naked and bathed in rusted talons.
Stopping only the closing
of my walls
Made me tumble down
jagged rocks with
splinters in my knees,
And eat popcorn for two
days with nothing to drink.
I think I can see my ribs
and knobby wrists.
My feet feel heavy when I
walk and you say I'm ill.
Your albatross eyes quiver
when I pass. Disgusted?
I get up to be bored and
dream of my happier days
While you complain about life and work.
Did you think it feels this bad
Because you're perspective
is horrendous?
There's a button I pressed
not too long ago.
I think it is broken now.
Those nimble fingers
attached to my straw head
Keep tugging and pulling at night.
Can I wake up now to a
sunrise that hurts my eyes for once?

I am never without a pen in my hand. I mostly write poetry, and the rest of me is, hence, in my ink.
