Dear so and so

Gather me up because I'm lost

I'm crawling on the floor, rolling on the ground

I might cry, I won't go home

I am turning up in circles

And I'm spinning on my knuckles

Don't forget that there are circles left undone

And very close to me

Forgive me, comfort me

I'm crawling on the floor, rolling on the ground

There's a blanket wrapped around my head

I'm moving in a line that's shaped like this

I'm...I'm holding in my breath

I have a room

Can you tell if I am lying

Don't forget that I'm living inside the space where wall and floor meet

There's a box inside my chest

An animal stuffed with my frustrations

Can you hear me?

Don't forget that I'm alone when you're away

You make me act like other people

Comfort me, you comfort me, you make me die

I'm gonna cry, I won't go home

Dooooooooonnnnnn't kill the god of sadness

Just don't let her get you down

See the man inside a book I read, can't handle his own head

So what the hell am I supposed to do?

I wonder how he died

My hands are shaking, don't you love me anymore

I only need a person, keep my shoulders

Stand around, lie down, move your head above the floor

Gather me up because I'm lost

Or I'm back where I started from

I'm crawling on the floor, rolling on the ground

I'm gonna cry, you look for me

Love Kristin

P.S. Keep them coming
