my mind's in a tornado
my mouth is dried up from drought
my eyes are burning from volcanic ash
my hair is damp with a tsunami's mournful waters
my feet are calloused from harsh earthquakes
my hands are scratched from a hurricane's debris
and my heart
my poor heart
is slowly deteriorating into dust.
i'm nothing but a disaster.
how could you love someone
as careless and distressed and reckless
as myself?
and that's the thing.
you can't.
