Make It Stop

Too much
Stop
Make everything stop
I want it to go away
I want everyone to go away
Don’t make me come out
From my fetal position
I am curled up to keep you away
My hands tremble
My vision shakes
I rock back and forth
To prevent you from coming
Don’t call me babe
Don’t talk at me
I will not be yours
If I am feeling this way
Cry cry die die ache ache ache
This roaring empty qualm
Leaves me anything but calm
And my head
Is
Numb
I am on hiatus
Let her do the work for me
I am guilty, nonetheless
But I just need a break
She’ll come out for a while
So I can sleep
And stay buried
Beneath her strong mind
She is fearless
And she takes everything
It’s abstruse, I know
But there is no other way
This is the last of me
For a while
