out of touch but always touching something someone
place or person

give me a name that means whole stable satisfied
if you have a name to spare

if I bleach my hair if I skip down streets if I skip meals
quiet the feeling

the sun may come but I will not be coming with it
white lies are a gift

I give away everything every piece every bitten nail bed
unmade and slept in late

sedate the panic not another word not another burden
can’t I just

calm down grow up smile more eat more tell the truth any truth
except that one

one day I will find myself heal myself give myself permission
to exist in this body

any body will do anybody to stay anybody to tell me it doesn’t have to
be this way forever
