I keep writing
hoping
wishing
dreaming
of a better place
better me
making
creating
imagining
scenarios in my head
something else
not the bad thoughts
not about the guilt
and pain
and bruises
and abandonment
and loneliness
something else

hey,
the carnivals feel light
with so brightness
but I feel light-headed
with so much ugliness.

you are not ugly
you can be alright
we will meet and talk
we will be fine
