And I've been really heavy around here
But I've been so heavy around here
But I've been so heavy around here
And I've been so heavy around here

Outside the church
he grabs my hand,
"You don't wander into the street."
My mind swims
drenched in rain
odd phrasing
far
I know blue light on my skin
I know how it feels to be called beautiful
I know poetry of colour not intent
I know pictures of our best friends
pinned above your bed
I know that hippos make pink milk
I know burnt page corners,
breathing in the smoke
I know no appetite under your concrete ceiling
I know 72 pages that I will keep until my death
I know your phone calls to hear my voice
I know "The Bell Jar" and Plath
I know two people in a restaurant not speaking
I know a deep blue that I drink inside
I know my bed covered in red wine
I know puke-scented brittle hair
I know you are never ok
I know fear
I know a woman I vividly love
I've lost my life
I know the poems I've wrote in vain
It's fine
It's fine
It's fine

The biopsy
was effective
She plunged from her
him effervescent
They told her
video monitor
He would be
arriving
Small palpitations
her arrhythmia
He had not lied
he was losing hair
The recorder
was green lit
The rights of
the victim
"Do you
accept the charges?"
"No," he said.
Holding his quiver
Her mascara
draining down her cheeks
"I have been trained
to recognize"
"My mental health
does not inhibit"
"Not once was it
consensual"
Between us
the room sat
And the workers
they lowered steel

You will stay alive
You will stay alive

[ "How can you still love me?"
"I will always love you."
"You need to go!"
"What are you talking about?"
"I'm not like that!"
"How can I know!"
"Is he here?"
"No I'm leaving."
"No I need to leave. It's your place."
"You're not going to hurt yourself?"
"I would not hurt myself over you." ]
You will stay alive
You will stay alive
You will stay alive
Allow you
I'll allow you
I'll allow you
I'll allow
