Maybe I just don't want to be here!
Is that so bad!
I can't cling to this hill like you do!
I have no claws!
But I have nowhere else to go!
You glare at me like it's all my fault
My fault that I can't climb
That my nails are bent and dirty
And I've been slipping down
And it is
In part
But I just hate this so much
And I don't want to do this anymore!
You bound your rope around me
And now you're angry I want to untie it
Isn't that okay?
Aren't I allowed to fall?
Aren't I allowed to fail?
You didn't need to me to do this!
I don't want to be dragged into this anymore!
I don't want to be dragged up!
I'll rise in my own time
But for now just let me rest.
I climbed the slope for hours
And in one second fell to the bottom again
I need to rest here
I don't know how long it will take
Bones don't heal on your time
They heal on their own
And I have to let them.
I'm rebuilding myself again,
After I already tried
I don't think I'll meet you at the top
You'll find some other slope to climb
But I've had friends here at the bottom
And I really don't mind.
I don't play to stay here forever
But it's not as bad as you think.
I'm not as eager to crawl my way out as you
I'm okay with stopping to rest
