exaggeration

when i get
a tiny cut
a splinter
or something
i go crazy
I'm worried
i cry
i hyperventilate
i don't know what to do
i make a huge
deal
about
a tiny cut
this is how the world works
exaggeration

explosion

when I'm
worried
or
sad
or
confused
my heart swells
into a huge bubble
that barely will fit in my chest
i cant breathe
i cant talk
i cant cry
and the bubble expands
larger
larger
larger
until it bursts
and i
cry
talk
and
breathe
something occurs
inside of me
an
explosion

band-aid

you can bandage
yourself up
as much as you want
but you will still feel broken
not full
cracked
fractured
destroyed
even if its
flexible
waterproof
covered in designs
you wont feel better
still broken inside
