Stuck Inside Myself
October 23, 2015
Brain tied in knots
a useless mass of thoughts
I want to turn it off
eyes sunk in floods
a vision clouded by mud
I want to open them up
mouth stitched with thread
a home to words unsaid
I want to let them out
body set in stone
a hopeless girl of bone
I want to let her breathe
(my skin, lungs
and knees
are all like a prison
to me)
