Today.

Today.

 

I can’t today my friend, 

I’m protecting my shell,

From the monsters outside my window,

Scratching all day and all night,

Calling for the darkness within me,

To come out to play and dance.

 

I’m sorry, 

not today, my love,

My mind is complete chaos,

As is the house, my sanity,

I can\'t seem to get out of bed,

My life in disarray.

 

Nope, not going to happen,

Never again, ex-mate,

The wound in my back still aches,

The one from the knife,

You stabbed when you hugged me.

 

Today I guard myself,

Keeping my monsters in,

Take a rest from this mess

The card for today,

selfcare!
