deserve.
You’ve spent a lifetime
digging yourself a g r a v e
never even noticing
that the dirt had caved in
and you were trapped six feet under
You’ve spent an e t e r n i t y
covering up the scars and stitches
that hold you together
because, my dear
you are a patchwork doll
made completely
from a universe of light and dark
sewn together by unhappy c o i n c i d e n c e
You try to pull out your threads
one by one, pretending not to to see
your ends u n r a v e l i n g
You claim it’s for your friends
who deserve someone whole
Those same people
who will be g o n e tomorrow
once they’ve used you up and
d i s p o s e d of you like one of their cigarettes
So wear your flowers in your hair
and write p o e m s with the words that have
cluttered your head for too long
Laugh louder
like you were built to
and live for yourself
only for y o u r s e l f
You d e s e r v e this
You deserve a c h a n c e
