and I know in my heart that it is right
everything you’ve loved
you carry in your heart
with you, around,
I find that unbearable
sometimes.
everything you’ve loved
follows you around
doesn’t let you breathe
tries to hold you down
everything you’ve loved
haunts your sleep
you try to throw it out
to close your door to it --
you.
almost
succeed.
for who the hell you are
if not
for it.
