Uppers/Downers
by Touche Amore· from Parting The Sea Between Brightness And Me
you won’t find me buried in a notebook
I’ll be the one that’s self crucified
because I did this to myself
I hammered my own nails
while I exclaim
I’m not a poet to inspire
I barely made it through
the expectations of myself
and everything I do
to look up to me is to look down on everything
