My youth has grown old and I feel the pain. It isn’t me to be this way, but this won’t go away. I could curl into a human ball, roll me up the plank. Let me wither away on my arms and legs. Let my heart feel darkness on the rough waters. Or, I might fall into the open mouth of the dirt. Allow it to swallow me whole. Keep my heart and lungs as treasures. I have no use for them. My body could waddle into a casket. There’s no use to maintain a feminine shape. There’s no purpose to care. Wish me good luck for no good reason. My decay has been renewed.
