i wanted i gave needed i
i felt didn’t feel feel i
anger anger anger
people surrounding me
am running away, fast, breathing hard, lungs burning
don’t touch
don’t touch
talk i talk i
speak speak to spoken
talk i take talk take
speak speak listen
hear i hear i listen i
speak i
long i long i long
i am angry a wall of flame, creating blisters on pink flesh
remove your hand
sink deep into cold iced water
whisper bubble without form
in water i bubble i without form
i have form i disperse melt drift
struggle cling drown gasp fight, gasp i
breath in
long long
i want crawl escape
hide i shiver i shed
i am resigned to
whatever
