the bathroom door
is broken again
an imprint visible
a mark
dark
to show the impact

what if
that hit
landed on my skin
like it did
when i was a kid

the words
sieved
through a wooden door
that's all
that was saving me
from the other world

inside the bathroom
smiles and dreams
the future just seems
so bright
juxtaposed
with whatever this is

outside
i would rather not know
could i stay in here
and hide

what if
the door didn't exist
what would be the sieve
would would be the wood
where would the imprint land
of not on me

is that the reason
behind my crooked face
why my eyes aren't even
and my expression so fake

has my mind just shifted
oh shit
it's happening
i need to go back
to hiding

since everything is okay
for everyone else
and her ears hurt
what do i say

whatever
whatwver
whatever
it's okay
it's okay
just hate
but it's okay
