maybe if i was sure i could talk about dead people all the time.
states of paranoia. iii. yes i know where you have been. i must keep tabs. this is not okay. but it’s what i do these days. check in on the checkless. make sure you are following suit and where i expect and need you to be. don’t drift off that path! please don’t make me fear you are watching. sometimes i go for walks and hide beneath masculine faces to make sure i don’t think anyone who knows me will recognize the monster walking. or struggling to strut. she’s got big thighs. she’s got big mighty being. she’s scared. i know it.
states of paranoia. iv. i like you. a lot. i love you. a lot. i feel buts o m e t i m e s i d o n ’ t f e e l -other times leave ringing. r i n g w h o w i l l c l e a n u p a f t e r r i n g r i n g w h o w i l l h a v e t o c a l l t h e r i n g a m b u l a n c e o r t h e c o p s t o r i n g r i n g r i n g t h e c r i m e s c e n e . p l e a s e r i n g d o n ’ t l e t i t b e m y m o m r i n g r i n g r i n g r i n g b u r y m e u n d e r t h e w r o n g r i n g n a m e i n a t u x f a c e m a d e u p , r i n g r i n g r i n g p e r f e c t l y , r i n g b e a u t i f u l . r i n g r i n g i would love to be that for you
loss and isolation. v. here are some examples of excerpts of notes i didn’t commit to: sorry about this. i love you, though. hi my name is name abstracted and i was wondering what positons you were hiring for? you only text me when you’re high. i want to see your cancerous body peeling off the pavement. talk to me again? i miss you. hi! that’s so exciting! hey, what he did was wrong and the language you are using is heavy. that’s totally valid. fuck you, dad! i identify as a faggot. okay i lied i haven’t gone all the way through ever. so what? please stop pushing all your problems on me. do you still hate me? i think you should love somebody else. you can’t love me like that. you were wrong. i was wrong. no, i don’t understand, isn’t that beautiful? i want to see you again; heaven or hell, godwilling.
loss and isolation. vi. who is the next dead girl i know her not by name someti mes when you don’t have a g ood one y’know you just don ’t get it together & fall a part some weakens feel do w orse than others sometimes you scratch at your wrists still you teenager you wann a be loved good girl so scr atch those wrists til the s kin cakes into a new skin t here are hopeful and holist ics & no other way of being sometimes suicide is all th at feels there. so often suicide at feels there. s s s s
