It seems like that I had no time
It seems like time just stopped inside my ear
It seems like it stood still
I was frozen
frozen in time
in a moment
caught tightly within the grasp of a timeless place
measured only by the amount of heart beats I lost
I counted how many times my panties got wet
How many times I smelled the musty stench of New York streets
I felt lost inside the walls of my own mind
Too quiet a place to think
I needed noise
and noise never came
Grey mountains that obstructed my vision; not majestic.
No magic to it at all actually
Just men
Stronger and weaker at the same time
And I believe that I am free
even though I have never known freedom of any kind
My feet are blistering
At times I feel like walking is an impossible task.
Razors beneath me
Destination far off in the distance.
Like always no easy road
no taxis
no good Samaritans; in my book
Just grey coated clouds, covering the sky above me.
and my walk of shame lasted longer than most
I walked my shameful body off of a ledge
and jumped.
And now the streets are covered in the organs I once used to live
Usually, I’d care
Let them scavenge like hungry mongrels over the little of me that remains
Fight like dogs
Hungry for blood….. Like the gods they serve
Spitting image of only themselves
