sweet hibiscus tea
{ROXIE BLACKWOOD}
here's the thing
I can't do anything right
try as I absolutely totally might
{ELLIE MAXWELL}
the bones are melting
the skeleton is ash
the clavicle detaches and falls with a deafening crash
{ASTRID SVENSSON}
and I'm not your protagonist
I'm not even my own
{LUCIE DAVID}
I don't know anything
I don't even know what I don't know
{LAURA EASTON}
and if you look outside you'll see disintegrating trees
the artificial way the sunlight bounces off the waxy leaves
{DANNY LEWIS}
my heart catches on every thorn
you're already half way out the door
{ALTHEA HOLT}
and I've never looked so old
and god it's never been so cold
and it is 85 degrees
I don't know what I need
{VALERIA GARCIA}
there's lukewarm herbal mango sweet hibiscus tea
on the hot garbage pile in which I fucking sleep
{ELLIE MAXWELL}
the walls are empty
it's so ugly, I could burn the whole place down
it wouldn't catch cause all the posters are on their way to my hometown
{AURORA MATTHEWS}
and I am not your protagonist
I'm not even my own
{LAURA EASTON}
I don't know anything
I don't even know what I don't know
{ROXIE BLACKWOOD}
and if you look outside you'll see disintegrating trees
the artificial way the sunlight bounces off the glitching leaves
{LUCIE DAVID}
my wet heart catches on every thorn
you're already half way out the door
{ELLIE MAXWELL}
and I'm so tiny and so old
and god it's never been so cold
and it is 85 degrees
I don't know what I need
