I need to feel like I’ve cried when I close my eyes
today felt so suffocating
I’ve looked everywhere and felt everything.
my only defense was the position my heart lays in
my heart lays in the fetal position.
it’s an cry for surrender
a cry for survival
hear what I dare speak not
when I say I defend my silence
this is what I mean.
I turn my face toward the wall so you’ll hear me.
hear me earnestly.
