So it’s all come back round to breaking apart again
Breaking apart like I’m made up of glass again
Making it up behind my back again
Holding my breath for the fear of sleep again
Holding it up behind my head again
Cut in deep to the heart of the bone again
Round and round and round and it’s coming apart again
Over and over and over
And now that I know that I’m breaking to pieces
I’ll pull out my heart and I’ll feed it to anyone
I’m crying for sympathy, crocodiles cry for the love of the crowd
And the three cheers from everyone
Dropping through sky, through the glass of the roof
Through the roof of your mouth, through the mouth of your eye
Through the eye of the needle, it’s easier for me to get closer to Heaven
Than ever feel whole again
I never said I would stay to the end
disintergration
the cure
I have been silent. Not with all, but with most. I struggle with that now. Do I tell? No one would know otherwise – no physical changes are present at this point. I can just keep going on pretending everything is okay. I am a robot. I am not human.
In the mind of my child-self, I was wondering if I could be rebuilt physically and mentally, like the six million dollar man. Would it only cost six million dollars? Can I win the lottery before then? Would I be good in bed? So many questions, always so many questions.
Now I am afraid I will be perceived as a liar a quitter a failure. I am not a survivor. My body is not winning any war. And “they” will say “she” lost her long “battle”. “They” will think it necessary to say nice things about me about how brave I was and “they” will wonder why I requested that no craft store cardboard displays of really bad photos of me are displayed. “They” will shake their heads.
I am sorry I let you down.
