Refrigerator Me

my body is a refrigerator
and my head is the freezer

you can open me up
and peer inside

my head is filled with frozen thoughts
frozen dreams

you can see the coldness of my heart
and the magnets of happiness on my exterior

with cold feet
can you tell I'm afraid to move on?

can you see passed the Popsicles and produce?
can you still see me?

sinking 
            falling 
                         plunging


can't hold on with cold clammy hands
can't stand up with tingling legs


choking?

suffocating in this actuality that i cant believe
this reality that i cant shake, one that i hate
I've been left stunned and senseless

claustrophobic

killing me softly
with memories and still frames
and dreams of what shoulda been
without you
and i HAVE to cry
all the time these days, but wont
push the tears back hard
held it together for them
their backs are turned
the girl is finally crumbling

May 22, 2010

it's 3 am
and once again
a girl cant sleep



i look it up,
and i blink
as slowly i begin to weep

i been drug back again
washed over with this
pain that i didnt think would keep

and it hits
just like a brick

as my insides churn
as my thoughts burn

heart dropped 
heart sick
mouth dry
tongue thick

this must be what its like
when hope dies

i know my eyes should be closed
but as it turns out, the brain just goes and goes
pencil to paper
it flows and flows

things that keep me up,
and surely only god knows
