Fiction
tear-stained eyes;
she continues to
live in her lies.
this is what relapse looks like.
her eyes are distant,
you can hear it in her voice,
afraid to live,
in hopes of death;
she doesn’t belong,
walking along
with the lost and the broken,
she cannot be found.
she cannot be fixed.
her body,
disgusting.
fat fills every inch
like a middle-aged man
and barbecue in the...

i want to become
i want to become a person.
a person for myself.
not a dream of someone else,
not a figment a mind made up,
not an object to be lusted after.
i want to become a person.
i want to find the “me”

i want to become ‘a real boy,’
embrace the rushing flood
and drown in it.

Untitled [Fluttering Eyes] Kiki Smith Painting
Windows to the soul Look at me I can read you from the inside out. Innocent, old, lost I understand it all, So why can’t you? Do not pretend, for your body is transparent. You are not a wall Nor a suit of armor, You are you and it is beautiful. Wrinkles tell of age and things I can not fully empathize with. Wide open, I wish I saw the world as you do. There is humor in the depths of your...
