Coping MechanismsA Poem by crowskinSometimes the only safe place is inside yourself.
Locking our
selves into greywalledrooms is what we do best to forget the com p l i c a t i o n s There were days and weeks of she and her and you-know-who, and then when so-and-so was still just so-and-so and you did things just-because, I knew that I could love you (and oh, I still could now) but that isn't im p o r t a n t (because l o cking ourselves i n t o it's what we [both] do best) We struggle our separate ways on separate roads in our separate beds With our internal clocks that refuse to recognise any sort of standardised time; With our peripherals filled with the same monster, wearing different masks.
