1.I hope the day never comes when even my tears freeze over2.
3.I hate being all alone in this room as it grates away at my mind
4.My shirt left out to dry, its collar all askew
5.No matter how long I wait, the thinning of the soles of my shoes continues
6.Even though I have nowhere to go
7.I can’t help running my fingers over those worn-out edges over and over8.
9.I keep hoping the day never comes10.
11.When even my tears freeze over
12.Filled with that same tender violence as admiring a flower in bloom
13.To keep those sharp claws from harming anyone
14.I have to destroy them, no matter what it takes15.
16.I board a ship of Theseus irreversibly, just like fabric coming apart at the seams
17.Hoping to move forward toward the future
18.But the harder I wished, the further and further away it grew19.
20.Until I can fill the hole raindrops bore through the stone
21.With an offering of flowers to my daily life 22.
23.Even these tears of mine dried up with no reason at all
24.All I did was cry, but I would never let myself indulge in that horrible weakness again
25.The innocent sparkle in those eyes like you get from eating a sweet treat in one bite
26.To keep those sharp claws and the rough edges rubbing against open wounds from reaching anyone
27.I have to destroy them, I have to, no matter what it takes
