I’m Fine – by Sarah Marie Bruno

I’m fine

By Sarah Marie Bruno

 

Sometimes I feel like the story of my life 

Isn’t about me;

It’s a movie starring a girl without a face,

Watching herself in two dimensions,

From a safe distance

I draw on my clothes like I draw on a smile

But I’ve forgotten what a dress looks like

It doesn’t matter.

They’ll say I’ve got my head in the clouds,

But the clouds are made of smoke

Sanity is knowing I’m suffocating in it

I’d rather be free,

Because if your face is blurry,

I don’t have to care.
