She’s so small
And so bone shattering
So soul crushingly loud
How can someone so small
Shake you inside with the tightest fists
The most relentless grip
How does someone function
So removed
So hidden
So alone in their private chaos
Take the walls away
And what you see will surprise you
We’re not really safe behind a smile
And we’re not really held in our sleep
Comments
beautiful…
fills and erases us
You write about our paradox quite a bit
I quite a bit like your writing
