& You just shrug your shoulders as usual by Olivia Weinkeinlook,
i am sorry that
i am breaking.
i am sorry that
i keep reminding you
with the shadows
on my face.
i tried to disappear, i did.
but winter made my cold, cold
hands feel warm again.
& look,
i know we are only
pretending.
i know my capsizing soul
is driving you insane.
my eagerness to throw myself
in front of a truck or
an airplane
doesn't impress you, doesn't
force you
to want to save me.
i guess i just need a hug
or kind eyes to look into.
no
dramatic theatrics or heartfelt
proclamations,
i guess i just need a hand to
hold onto, or
something to just make sense,
just this once.
anything at all.
you. me.
the way my cracks
are beginning to show.
because look,
i am sorry that
i am breaking.
& i am really trying
not to let you know,
ya know. 10/29/2012 Posted on 10/29/2012 Copyright © 2025 Olivia Weinkein
