The Letter |
September 29th, 1984 |
Dear so and so |
Gather me up because I’m lost |
Or I’m back where I started from |
I’m crawling on the floor |
Rolling on the ground |
I might cry, I won’t go home |
So here’s the story |
I am turning up in circles |
And I’m spinning on my knuckles |
Don’t forget that there are circles left undone |
Very close to me |
Forgive me. |
Comfort me |
I’m crawling on the floor |
Rolling on the ground |
There’s a blanket wrapped around my head |
I’m moving in a line, it’s shaped like this |
I’m |
I’m holding in my breath, I have a room |
Can you tell if I am lying? |
Don’t forget that I’m living inside |
The space where walls and floor meet |
A box inside my chest |
An animal stuffed with my frustration |
Can you hear me? |
Don’t forget that I’m alone when you’re away |
You make me act like other people do |
Forgive me |
Comfort me |
You comfort me |
You make me die |
I’m gonna cry |
I won’t go home |
Don’t kill the God of Sadness |
Just don’t let her get you down |
See, the man inside a book I read |
Can’t handle his own head |
So what the hell am I supposed to do? |
I’d like to know how he died |
My hands are shaking |
Don’t you love me anymore? |
I only need a person, keep my shoulders |
Stand around, lie down |
Move your hand above the floor |
Gather me up because I’m lost |
Or I’m back where I started from |
I’m crawling on the floor |
Rolling on the ground |
I’m gonna cry |
You look for me |
Love, Kristin |
P. S. Keep them coming |
