real

hold out your hand. don’t flinch don’t twitch
breath shudder. your hands pass through her.
your nails are sharp. claws through skin.
this is your fault. fault fault fault throw it around.
push yourself off a cliff and pull yourself back up again.

put your wrists together and wait for the ziptie
press and snap duct tape over your eyes your mouth your face
sew your little shroud of guilt with the threads of her hair.
don’t you feel irredeemable? you can’t scratch it away
but please keep trying, over and over

**Haha, do you see? Look what he did
I knew we were right not to trust him!
It’s all his fault!
***It's all your fault!***
oh what did you do what did you do what did you do**

let go. you lost, you failed. get back up.
i told you to stop and you disregarded every second
get up. walk away.
do not ever let me see your face again
turn around and keep walking until you can’t anymore.
