My mother always told me „it’s fine“, whenever I hurt myself.
So when I was stupid enough to get myself electrocuted, it was fine. To get hit by a car, it was fine. The touch of those filthy familiar hands I was touched by, it was fine. Every time I broke my own heart, it was fine. To be hurt means to accept. Accept that the glasses belong to the top right of the shelf and for tomorrow to be just another new day.
Everything moves on, everything stays just so, everything but me.
I am a doormat with only one purpose, it’s fine.
My father would tell me „don’t cry, crying is ugly“ as he kept on muttering things to himself. I didn’t stop crying, I didn’t stop hurting.
So when you say „don’t worry about it“ I realize I’m still that fragile child.
I am a ridiculed paper on the table in the last lesson of the day.
My all revolves around you, you are the crimson red paint on my fingertips, tell me how to feel, you are the plain white wall I can’t help but stare at.
If you ever wondered why I hold onto you so tightly, it is because you are my hurt, my hurt it’s fine, fine is you.
I am nothing, nothing but emotions
Grief of my grief , no one stays
I give up on us, for we are no stable shelf for all these glasses.
