there
are
cracks
around
the
window
of
my
soul
where
water
leaks
in
and
turns
to
ice
where
responsibility
escapes
and
changes
to
neglect
like
a
magic
trick
turned
bad
how
could
i
be
so
careless
when
i
am
so
careful
?

there
are
certain
things
that
must
be
done
in
their
time
check
or
it
is
too
late

my
heart
rate
was
dangerously
slow
.
it
felt
like
there
was
a
block
of
concrete
on
my
chest
constricting
my
lungs
and
my
heart
.
i
couldn't
comprehend
the
television
.
reality
floated
on
the
edge
of
consciousness
.
i
lay
on
the
couch
gasping,
not
sure
when
i
would
finally
pass
out
.
not
sure
if
i
would
wake
up
when
i
finally
did
.
reality
melted
into
a
dream
.
there's
no
saftey
in
dreams

you
kiss
me
up
and
down
my
neck
taking
the
time
to
nibble
my
ears
and
suck
on
my
lips
and
as
my
breath
comes
in
gasps
i
shut
my
eyes
and
realize
god
,
what
a
wonderful
feeling
i've
been
missing
all
these
long
years

my
body
is
too
busy
, overridden
by
taser-like jolts
along
overopened
nerves
.
i
have
you
bring
me
here
so
i
can
leave
my
meat
behind
,
and
it
tries
to
resent
it
,
though
it
will
sleep
easy
for
a
week
,
a
day
,
with
satiety.
i
want
to
gasp
again
,
rather
than
taste
each
breath
as
substitute
for
sustenance.
