I want to be reckless
With something other than myself,
But not with a person,
Or even with a thing.
I want to be reckless in life,
Free from fear.
I want to take leaps
And twirls,
Even
a
few
tumbles.
I ache to do what I want
Without worry of repercussions.
To fling out spiteful words to you,
But only when I mean them.
To say farewell to conventions.
Poking holes in my body with needles, and decorating the wounds the metal.
Inserting ink into my flesh.
To eat that slice of pizza
Without wondering what he'll think of me.
I want to live
My life
Instead of setting
An example of goodness.
