she

she was never crazy

she just didn't let 

her heart settle

inside of a cage.

she was born wild

and sometimes we

need people like her.

for it's the horrors in her heart

that cause the flames 

in ours.


and she was always

willing to burn

for everything she

has ever loved.

and never apologizes 

for speaking too loud

or taking too long.


because if she ever started,

then she would start to lose

the unique parts of herself

and just become

one of us.
