Melting

As the wicked witch would say

Im melting

Melting in my false reality

Melting in my skin

As i age what was once considered “too much”

Has turned into something much worse

They call it mania

I call it my life

As i travel this journey alone

With the people i love incapable of understanding

I feel as if i’m melting

Falling into the mush of my disorder

-Dolly
