I attempt to remove myself from the center of my affection
the steady attention of my eyes deviates and makes me dizzy.
I think, if only I could move to the sides I'd get a better perspective and be able to step away completely.
no such luck. I waunder til my heart is clear of all the built up rubbish, I waunder til my hope breaks like bones.
I rejoice that it will be clean, and quick to heal.
I put myself inside the fear, I hear a millon night creatures, but none are there.
I think if I only stand in the center, I will gain a greater knowledge of how to stop shaking.
But it's all so necessary.
