There are claw marks on the yellow wallpaper and blood on my pillow
Nothing is mine not even the
Mold in the fridge because you didn't clean while I was away you left things
Rotting and exactly the same
I thought I would stop choking
My fingers would stop running over
The indents in the wood pretending
Your words made sense when you left
Instead i fell in love with sharp teeth
And ran away from home
Only to end up here again drowning
In the bathtub, please don't forget how
It all felt in the beggining
I will wash your blood out of the sheets
And forget all your places
Tell the wolves I'm home
And they no longer take up my space
I will destroy their beating hearts
Just so I can hear mine
