these
are my
insecurities

thomas patrick levy

My favorite things to hold are broken toys. These are like dreams mostly. These are short paragraphs made from contemptuous facial expressions. If you were a wall you would be a wall made of brick work. I hang a poster of myself. My poster-eyes line up perfectly with yours. I am broken though. Can you see through me? Can you see how each piece of my heart is crumbling under the weight of our comforter? I am so warm, I am so far from home and yet, even when I am about to cry, I think I WOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO LIFT YOU AGAIN. There’s no reason to sneak into your garage, there’s no reason to throw away or fix anything destroyed.
