No Need for another Label
Can you trust that this entire time she been fooling around with her own clock
Thinking the hands had a mind of its own; with each blink it would be 12 to 3 to 10
ignorantly, she question how a sweet taste can go bitter so quickly.
Or how a hand that was once soft, deliver such hard pinches.
Or even how smiles that once melted her heart, can send that very organ into cardiac arrest.
It perplexing, but not understandable.
No one bothered to inform that her brain has angry tumors
digging their sphincters into her . Her mind has taken her hostage
poisoning her with hallucinations, imaginary wounds
scheming her into thinking that everyone with abandon her eventually
so those friendships that once was made out of stone, turn them into glass so they can shatter easily
pull the loose thread of your peers; tuck yours in deep.
Pray hard, laugh loud, love harder because it will all turn into a memory
I'm sorry dear that you cant help to bear a tree to later swing an ax at its core
I apologize dear that you got you got you feet wet; and now your all wrinkled up and raisin like
I show empathy dear because your fears of abandonment
and no matter who you meet or what road you take, you'll always be a forgettable construction site
you got you nails and your hammer. Your measuring tape and your cordless circular saw
you got everything
but always will I unconsciously fool around with my own clock
ignorantly questioning why there was time I once dance, but now I hide under my sheets
or how my stomach can be so full; but I keep sticking my finger down my throat
or how I even love life endlessly, you endlessly, I’ll be there endlessly
but I’m cursed with a Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD).
Its perplexing, but not understandable.
