In Every Room

 




Then will their eyes get off me? 

  Have I bound myself?! 


My name in rooms I have not entered. 

  My soured and frenzied heart scattered across poetry Smeared all over the wall?! 


  Can not I have a private thought? 


      A rendered time to weep? 


Can not I be frail and ball myself up, 


  Without the world's eyes on me? 



Monitoring spirits and gossip ever on tongues....


  So used to my name being spoken of


  Before I even show up. 



And weighted so...

  Weighted down...


  Only hands siphoning me 


I reach out, and only Heaven grabs 


  It's a different kind of reprieve. 


Gone under


  So, long ago. 


There's not many Fucks left to give in me. 


   A lonely place...


Embracing it so. 


Perhaps that's the only place to be.
