they don’t even notice I’m a mess
the truth is,
I’m not even sure how I’m able to function,
because it feels like I’ve been splintered into a million little pieces
and today, like most days,
I’m just clumsy patchwork,
exhaustedly strung together with recycled red string,
fate stitched to the soles of my tired feet,
and they’re all scavengers,
viscously peck-pecking away at my seams,
wanting more, more,
more

maybe clumsy patchwork, but put together by beautiful hands, the ones that nurture and love others even when she is not fully herself, the woman in me reads this and understands the sewed together feeling
