do you think that jesus, son of god, ever yearned to be an normal man, free of the expectations placed on him by his father? i wonder if he would ever cry for his mother, or the quiet life he could’ve had.

every day when i get home i unzip my skin.

i remove my eyes, and peel off my lips.

i switch out my brain, and shut off my ears.

in the morning, i put my skin back on.

i fix my eyes, my lips, my brain, and turn my ears back on.

i walk among the others, and observe as i pick out the ones who also hide among them.

some are easier to identify than others, the nervousness of being caught as an imposter radiating.

their skins slowly peeling off like the sticky notes that cover my mirror, “i am human” scrawled across each in an illegible manner.

as my skin falls off, i’m seen.

their words tear into me like a scalpel, their eyes are nauseating as they gut me from the inside out. the blood is drained from my body while i curl into myself.

slowly i dissolve into what i truly am

they see right through the thin sheet protecting the little bit that’s left of me.

they don’t stop there though, instead they keep going until i am nothing.

i am human. i am human. i am human. i am human. i am human.

"How do you write such realistic dialogue-" I TALK TO MYSELF. I TALK TO MYSELF AND I PRETEND I AM THE ONE SAYING THE LINE. LIKE SANITY IS SLOWLY SLIPPING FROM BETWEEN MY FINGERS WITH EVERY MEASLY WORD THEY TYPE OUT. THAT IS HOW.

I cannot emphasize enough how much of a life hack it is to exclusively be friends with, date and marry people who are not constantly mean assholes to you.

you weren’t a bad person, you were 13. sure that doesn’t mean what you did was okay, but it means you need to learn from it and move on.
