+ the weight of having a physical body

​

+ sometimes you are so nothing that you’d break your ribs just to

  feel anything

​

+ sometimes you feel so much that you want to claw out your lungs

  because you can't handle it

​

+ there is no escape, no way out, no matter how you twist and turn

​

+ being you, and you, and stuck as you; and no matter how far your

  run, you will still be you

​

+ a bullet in a cowboy cartoon that should break concrete, but

  instead just ricochets off glass bottles and tables and walls and

  never slows down; just winds itself up and up and never stops

​

+ an artificially created black hole that was meant to swallow

  everything that comes close; but instead it is locked behind a

  vacuum seal and people take pictures

​

+ you never asked to be here, yet here you are

​

+ pacing through the same room over and over because there’s

  nothing else to pace through

​

+ you want to jump off the edge of the world and float gently

  towards the sun, but you can’t because the earth is round and

  you’ll just end up back where you started

​

+ the stale air at the end of the world
