Mine

41 1 1
                                    

A bit scared,
a bit broken,
a big regret,
of what's spoken.
It's a weight, heavier than my spine.
But it's mine.

There's a clock,
ticking all the time.
Every second I breathe,
feels like a crime.
That every second from nine to nine,
it's mine.

The wall,
it's faded shades,
the dust and webs,
from decades,
never reflected a positive shine.
B'cause it's mine.

The saw me,
they saw my hand.
They said my stars,
had a lot of scars.
That every single palm line,
it's mine.

The water's so deep,
I try to flee.
Black is all I see.
It's mud or blood I can't define.
But it's mine.
