as if in some cheap horror flick-
and your'e the chick--
the one that doesn't make it
But you still fake it-
UNAWARE
of anything real
because nothing's real anymore-
Except the first appearance of crows feet
and outlines of frowns-
from so many years of depression
and the suppression
of things once longed for-
but exist no more
for me
once me
just me
no me
free me
