the beauty of a bulimic
and the wisdom
from an overlooked crumb
I once reached deep into the cosmos
and painted a glittering sky
of pure unimaginable emotion
I remember seeing people
for all they could be
and not

I dreamed of sorrow then
and felt deeper
then the murky depths of the ocean
most of all I remember so strongly
being able to save all those
who needed saving
but now I am the one
who needs to be saved
