Insecure

It feels like every alarm

in the house has gone off

and that I just want to break it

I don’t want to listen to a second of it

or look at it trying to find out what

made it go off

I wish I would not feel the insecurity

That it did not exist

If I could I would

break it into pieces

and eventually this is what I try to do

when I cut them from my life

Erase their numbers

Delete the messages

Take away any reminders

of the uncertainty that was passed from

you to me

and then back again
