Part Thirteen - The Man (part 2)

I lie here on the ground
fraying at the edges
torn along the seams
falling apart again

I have been locked away for years
folded into shapes
crushed
hidden in drawers
in cupboards
falling behind the furniture

I am collecting dust

I am becoming dust

Parts of me fall to the ground
my fingers
my toes
my feelings
I can see them falling far from me
and i am not scared

I lie here in a pile on the floor
arms above me
my hair underneath me
my own eyes looking back at me

I am old and worn
I am lost

I am forgotten
