Breakdown

How hard do I have to break
for it to not be about you anymore?

How much pain has to surface
How many days do I have to be lost in a melancoma
for you to define it as a nervous breakdown, something to seek help for?

Your hard emotions
Your high demands

Leave me alone!
or hold me while I shake in tears
accept that I am barely breathing

Living moment to moment
day to day

That I
cannot
take this

How many migraines do I have to have?
How many muscles have to be over-stressed?
How many hours of sleep do I have to loose?
How many meals do I have to miss?

He takes my hands and I feel myself at breaking-point, not able to appease or run from the worry in his eyes

You only
blame me
