I told my innermost secret and she does not remember it...
|

longing anywhere as long as it's not here and not now a longing demanding my full attention for me not to dissolve a longing that slowly drains my body of energy and scatter it over an infinity a longing with no interruption an endless circlar repetetion longing to let go to finally rest
|
||
en odentifierbar rastlöshet som en klåda på insidan av kroppen ovilja att tänka rädsla för att stanna upp om man stannar tvingas man tänka rädsla att finna hopplöshet finna uppgiften meningslös som Sysifos utan sitt berg om man slutar upphör man att existera
|
||
I think of it as a parasite the unidentifiable restlessness a scratching on the inside of my chest a constant picking on my shoulder demanding convincing
|
||
calm strong and safe on the outside rabies wolves in your mind you learn to live with it like a mental tinnitus
|
||
jag litar inte på mig själv jag litar inte på andra jag vet att de inte har all kunskap eller hela sanningen för jag har ljugit
|
||
refuse to let go ignoring the pain you get use to it this fucking idiotic stubbornness straight in to the wall again and again like a brooken toy robot
|
||
I wanted to be there before I even started I was not ready forced myself to continue because to not follow through is failure is one ever ready
|
||
performance requirement it's everywhere swallows me whole never lose only second best totally useless pathetic I believe they laugh when I am not there
|

when it's no longer possible to runaway from the truth when you raise your eyes and realize that you have to get out of that place or it will destroy you at the same time you also realize that you have no idea of where you are or how to get out of there
|
||
staring at the ground digesting time in small portions concentrating on keeping all my atoms in place
|
||
talking and talking and talking and talking and talking and talking and talking and talking and talking
pressure increase shame covers me with its damp blanket I have taken up too much space
|
||
this is my biggest fear pathetic foolish and unraveled you leave
|
||
the most banal question from you creates a need for new ground under my feet afterwards picking myself apart into small pieces difficult to get everything back in palce
a new confrontation and afterwards picking myself apart again smithereens everywhere small pieces
|
||
once again taking the part of the ugly duckling like a clumsy pile of meat and ruffles with bows in my hair and scarlett red lips pathetic in my high-heeled shoes
|
||
två främmande äckliga köttklumpar placerade på min bröstkorg groteska utväxter aggressiva svulster som hånar mig provocerar mig
|
||
idag var likadan som igår imorgon kommer att bli likadan som idag tanken som ett knytnävslag i ansiktet
|
||
alla dessa djävla dagar av solsken då lyckan borde strömma genom kroppen istället en trögflytande massa genom mina ådror smärta över att man inte kan njuta av den satans solen uppgivenhet inför allt man inte hann att göra trots att man gjorde ingenting frustration inför att den tid och förbannade energi man lagt ner inte lett framåt utan bara lurat en i lust slukande cirklar djävla förbannade skit dagar av vårsol
|
||
the same stains and holes in the ceiling new staines and holes in me
|
||
a wish to sleep away the darkest houers stop the clocks sink into the wallpaper not need to participate for a while
|
||
afraid to let go of sorrow who will one become afraid of happiness happiness demands responsibility it requires an effort to stay there courage and strength for not to hide away
|
||
an attractive force from inside of the mist longing to go back in protective numbing safe and soft like a duvet
