Spoiler

I’m sorry
I fill my eyelids with
cups of boiling tears
but I don’t let them drop
because the spilling droplets
will make me think of all the pain I spilled
I’m sorry
I tried to help
but was it me who needed to help?
I’m sorry
I kept it in
like rain droplets on a windshield
I collected into a tiny bead
and was streaked across the glass
and onto the puddle-filled asphalt
if I rip off my skin
will you stare at me that way?
or will I simply be a pile
of mistakes?

Who's to say that my light is better than your darkness? Who's to say death is better than your darkness? Who am I to say?
