Not Today

Not Today

A Poem by Michelle Chiafala
"

Maybe I will be okay, I think to myself. But not today.

"
Maybe I will be okay,
I think to myself. But
then I remember the
marks on my skin;
straight lines that I
have made to release
the pain within me.
Maybe I will be okay,
I think to myself. But
not today.
