Learning Curve:

No one ever prepares you for how it really is.

They tell you how to act

How to dress

How to feel when everything that's supposed to happen

happens.

But it doesn't.

It never happens how it's supposed to.

So when you're trying to pick up

The shattered pieces of you

Remember that no matter what they said

Your safest bet on glue is

You.

~J.K.M.

Choking:

Hands that tighten

Fingers that claw

Gripping me numbly

Remembering what it was like

to breathe before.

Before you grabbed my throat

In both your cold hands

And decided breathing

Just wasn't meant for me.

~J.K.M.
