i'm begging to be forgiven
though i don't know
what i've done wrong.
there's warmth
cradling my knees to my chest.
i wish they could fold
all the way inside,
so i could finally stop
taking up so much space.
i want to be condensed
and broken down,
so i can finally feel small.
god, when did it get this bad?
what have i done wrong?
please forgive me soon.
