#oof(tm)

Here’s to you, all you meltdowns and stress and severe anxiety. You made me seek out counseling and a diagnosis when I’ve needed it my whole life.

and just to keep my head afloat // and my body unprovoked

i set up walls and made sure to // include windows

and i cure the pores in my skin // i leave no room for anything

i survive because i have died

and maybe // in a year

i’ll learn to // love fear

and maybe // in a year
