SUGAR
"Once upon a time, there were three fears: Papa Fear, Mamma Fear, and Baby Fear. All were too hot, too cold, too hard, too soft...and yet somehow, also just right.
Huh.
I'm not really sure how I fit but there is always a space for me. I can’t fix all of this but I pick up the pieces and lay them out in order. I follow the recipe, remember my lines. It’s not what I expected and vengeance is sweet but useless.
Made from 87% recycled glass, I am strong wild and free but I will not be familiar, and I’m composing myself as fast as I possibly can then making fun of the alternate self I embody, then running to catch up with it and apologize. Like I’ve been here before, I follow these lines, screaming sweet nothings, blown out of proportion...
Dealing with gentleness clumsily, fingers always too slippery, gestures always too grand. I never wanted to be called romantic!
This certainty's a little death, a little sweet, a little sour.
I'm hugged and left for dead, but somehow I haven’t missed a beat, flying through concentric circles of reason and doubt, wondering aloud if I’m okay and who decides what’s okay. Doesn’t that seem a bit drastic? Because who is who? Are you one or am I speaking to all of you? I’m expecting to be held while getting away with dropping..."
