“I FELT LIKE CRYING
which felt like
another person
trapped behind my face
tiny fists punching
the backs of my eyes
feet kicking
my throat at the spot
where the swallow
starts.

Stay strong, I whispered to me.
Because crying
is against
The Rules.”

gotta get it out,
but just remember, when
you're walking in the nighttime,
make sure the nighttime
ain't walking into you.”
