The bottom section with "Nothing" can be read two ways...and i mean them both.
Why can't i speak
why do the words come up from below
and stuff in my throat like rancid meat.
i gag on the thoughts
and my mouth seals from the pictures.the worse it gets inside
the tighter my lips press
like a thousand stitches to close every gap
my mouth won't move
like arms bound with chains
my mind goes to numband the emptyness soothes.
my eyes blur and i let NOTHING IN.
Nothing in to hurt
Nothing in to fear
Nothing in."Nothing" has saved me all these years.
"Nothing" has protected me from endless fears.
"Nothing" blocks bad thoughts from entering.
"Nothing" stops me from hearing the censuring.
"Nothing" is my safety from betrayal.
"Nothing" stops me from becoming frail.
