i can feel myself collapsing
until i’m just a heap on the floor
i’m drained, hollow, cold
can’t withstand it anymore
i am not always a fortress
and sometimes it becomes too much
if you hit me enough times
the door will break down
and the best i can do is flood the city
but that’s never accomplished much
if you crack me enough times
my body will rupture
the skin will fissure
i will be left with millions of tiny fractures
and it will be irrevocable
and it won’t be my fault
-
i should go to sleep
but i feel contradictions deep into my core
and i can’t decide
whether my eyes are keeping themselves open
or if i wish to remain wide awake
sometimes it’s easier to pretend
that you can get it together
and maybe everything is falling apart
but you’ll get your stitches
and soon enough maybe you won’t have to remember
maybe you’ll be able to do it all yourself again
and you won’t feel so sick
