I could take off and tell no one

But I won’t

I could cut all the ties between you and I

But I won’t

I could get drunk and forget about my troubles

But I won’t

I could injure myself

But I won’t

Stupid little voice in my mind

It’s the only thing stopping me

The voices in my head

Who would care?

I would

I could start a fight

But I won’t

I’ll conform to the voices inside my head telling me not to

What’s wrong with me?

I have the power

But it’s kept at bay by my id

My ego is restless and yearning to be destructive

I scream for some assurances

Some attention

Some notice that I’m there

I want to morph into something beautifully imperfect

I want to die with scars and tattoos

Something to show that I have lived

Simple laugh lines will do

I want a body that tells a story

I want to experience life
