you don't realise you're losing touch with yourself
it's in the little things
like not wearing sunscream when you go out in the blistering heat
or skipping one of your much needed meals per day
or not drinking the right amount of water to keep you hydrated
or letting your wounds bleed out instead of getting a plaster
you don't notice
because you are
trapped within
yourselfyou don't notice
because your eyes
are only yoursyou don't notice
that slowly you
start not to
careyou don't realise that you're going
until you are completely gone.
- i think i'm losing my mind.
