frayed wires
I’m afraid! I’ve had electric confetti in my chest all morning Someone pulled the tab on a party popper And now there is sweet smoke and rainbow paper Trapped in my chest And they send sparks up my spine every time they touch my ribs I’m scared, I’m scared, I’m scared I won’t get it, I’m scared I will I’m scared they only see the worst in me Even though the worst rarely happens My body makes me wait for it My hearts been pounding in my ears all morning So loud I don’t hear them calling me something kind i’m afraid and tired of these frayed wires ripped thread with glowing beads of electricity
