eggshells
hundred tiny white shells at my feet,
I have to tred carefully.
Suddenly they crack,
and I'm falling.
What happened?!
Did I do something wrong?!
Down a hole where nobody goes,
and the only thing above me,
is you.
Shouting, screaming,
words that become knives,
as they cut though my flesh.
I can't feel them.
All I want is to stop falling,
to reach the bottom.
Yet you,
who I hate so much,
throw down a rope to me,
and pull me back up.
Thousand tiny white shells at my feet,
I have to tred carefully.
