stretched in two.

body split in ha lf.

not like Ying Yang

with equal parts,

good and bad

but me ssy a n d clustered.

the courage I've mustered,

has disappeared.

the parts GROW and

diminish.

and they s l o w l y finish,

what

little

life

I

thought I had.

consuming me into

a spiral.

I think I'm going mad.
