alright

so tell me how to act

tell me how to feel

im just hurt
i think

this silence is so far from comfortable. in every second that stretches out another vocal cord strains like an over tightened string. mine, that is, it’s my throat

i am so angry that i am so upset. i am upset that i am so angry.

i do nothing

it is okay that i am like this. is it? i would like to ask how you are
i would like to be able to tell a joke
i would like a story or an idea
instead of this buzzing
i really planned to sound better
but i don’t do i

i wanted to

say more
be more interesting
but i forgot


all my stories are sad
all my jokes are upsetting

show me how
or show me out
