i hurt myself,
my stupid fucking shoe keeps rubbing on my heels as i walk

converse are my favourite

half way through my walk
shit is starting to hurt

my skin,
is burning

peeling

it feels raw down there

comparing to the pain you caused me

the more i walk,
the more it hurts
and
burns

the more you push me away,
hurt me,

betray me

hurts
and
burns

just like the skin peeling off my heel

you're ripping
piece
by
piece

off my body

"just take the shoe off?"

you might think

it would be easy if i was at my destination

"just push him away"

it would be easy if my heart knew what my mind already knows
