getting up with knife pain between my lungs and folding laundry before i left, before the sun was up, half of me praying i'd someday earn the space to talk about what was hurting me, the other half hating that one for wanting anything like that and just trying to identify fully with whatever others wanted and drown out my kicking for air
i got out but my mind didn't come back
i was conditioned to hate myself for wanting to re-integrate the broken pieces of myself, for wanting to let them make peace and communicate with each other again, for wanting my body and biorhythms back
both wishing that anything was different, and talking myself through being-ok-with how things are, both set off the persecutor voices now which hurt me too much for me to maintain front-consciousness
i just watch from behind a wall of ice
