never let them know that the next
person
to reach their hands into your chest may look at you in awe,
at how surprisingly breakable you
are,
how you have survived this long.
Mary Lambert, from "Tips for Fat Girls"

There are moments within the withdrawal
When you drag your tired body
To the altar of reckoning,
Only to see something in the dark reflection
Worth saving.
A brief moment of laughter,
Seeping through porcelain cracks
Like warm, golden honey.
A reminder of who you once were,
Somebody gentle and maybe even
Worth calling out to-
Sitting in the ruin of recovery,
Though the moment is fleeting-
Its warmth overwhelmed me..
The way they laughed and shouted,
Insisting on dragging me along.
"You've been so...loving lately."
And I had been.
And I wanted to be.
And to be numb is easier,
But it's nice to feel like me again-
If only for a moment.

I'm sure there is an innocence
Somewhere lost within the grey.
In the fact that try as I might,
Every time I manage to turn my head-
I am yanked back to gaze upon you.
An innocence somewhere
In the fact that even in pain,
Confusion and fire-
In ecstasy, I cry out for you.
A great shame..
Perhaps a learned behavior.
Or maybe I love you.
Maybe I miss the safety of your embrace
That I had burned at the stake-
I will not be made a fool again.
Nobody has to know how my body shakes
For you.
I shall unravel into pieces
And I fear all that will be left at my core,
Is the way I admired your smile.
I'm sure somebody might see
Some kind of innocence
In that.
