cigarette smoke.

moral

every book i write spares a piece of myself, and it's really funny because they all say the same thing:

i want to become something that
i can be
proud of
i want to break my
bones
and regroup with
joy
i want to be able
to look in a mirror
and say

"I'm not disappointed
that I became
this
of all the things
I could
have been."
