_{i. run, baby, run
like you've never
run before; i know
that you're fast and
i know that i can't
make it to the finish
line--

ii. watch me walk
upon the sea, count
the ways you'd (break/made) me

iii. i wish that i could
do anything
and not fuck up;
i could be perfect,
and nothing less than divine,
i doubt it though,
i just do

iv. stop
the babbling and get straight
to the point; i know
that's how you like
it, at least i think
i do

v. call the shots!
roll in the cash and
watch it pile up-
what are we gonna
do with it in the first
place? are we just going
to let it rot or are we going
to do something with it that's
useful? can we just be rich and
not famous or vice versa
and stop this chain of weaving
back and forth like some
sort of friendship bracelet that i
don't know how to make; can things
just be simple

vi. "no."

vii. how is anyone supposed
to believe that the beautiful
girl is the most broken anymore?
the new trend is hating your body
and calling yourself ugly but it
seems that i'm the only person trying
to boost my quivering self-esteem-

oh gosh,
i'm alone

viii. can i not be afraid,
just for a second? can i
be fun and spontaneous and
feel like i'm on the top of
the world, when really, i'm
on the _bottom? can
i know what that's like, just
for a day, just for a week, just
for a month, just for a year, just
for a decade, just for a century, just
for an eternity}
