Touch me
I am unknown
See me
I am lost
Undo me
I am bound
Breathe me
I have forgotten my scent
Taste me
I have been reborn
Shatter me
And begin again

How did I become old in the prime of myself?
A joke perhaps?
Not funny.
I am beautiful,
free,
and only now do I know myself.
I know my knees hurt
and I make noises when I get up.
Not funny.
It is a good thing I am so wise now
or those saggy breasts
would piss me off.
Sleep on it.
I am supposed to sleep on it.
Lay down upon the thought
and rest while it solves itself inside of me.
Sleep on it.
I will give up control
to my sleeping self and change my world.
Sleeping on it will not change my answer
it will only…
perhaps…
Lessen my anger on the question.
