i don’t mind

They try to stop the true me

I don't mind

They walk on a mine field

I don't mind

I've seen my own leg cut to the bone

and my friends become less than

themselves

It hurts

I don't mind

We hold hands and pray to ourselves. the one we once were

before the invasion

I hope they can hear us

I don't mind

I send out poison thoughts

Traps for the enemy and

Warnings and Clues for my

future self

It costs me precious heartbeats

It costs me sanity

I don't mind

The path to the white room

is incendiary

Only a lunatic can find a home there

I don't mind
