Fin

A Poem by Jess Morton

i tired to be open i gave you everything i gave you safety when you could have been beaten and what have you done to betray me trampled flowers broken glass when she was gasping through a punctured lung in a smoking car you said nothing and when i blacked out in the parking lot at work you said nothing trampled feelings broken wrist now it's a molotov thrown into a simple standard life that has never been easy but the truth is i never saw you I shut you out I shut everyone out and it was fine until you pushed me aside to look at the whole world i can't breathe without the ache in my chest that i know exists only in my mind like the hospital nurse said but you have no idea what you're doing you glide through the air without a parachute so WHAT THE F**K IS YOUR PLAN NOW

do you really need to get rid of me?
