False Healing
April 25, 2022
I keep thinking
That if I can convince myself
That everything will be okay
Her words will leave, and I’ll be at peace
But I still feel so cold
Walking up to a charcoal scale
And feeling her burning eyes if the number didn’t drop
Oh, how young I was
When her judgment began
With an empty stomach that blossomed so bright
To something much more
That my mind couldn’t restore
As hard as I tried to get her off my trail
She followed me around to remind me
That I am not okay
