Can I go now?

I am ready to go. 

To close my eyes and rest. 

To lay my heart down in peace. 

To help my body find its comfort, 

Its soul, its home.  

every inch not caring 

not restless for what it never receives 

and a final smile upon my lips 

my heart oblivious that it grieves 

Hit Me, Go Ahead

throw me down

then grab me up 

shake me violently 

twist my arm

and punch my gut 

hit me until i’m free 

of this pain 

that brings sharp rain

and bruises where you can’t see
