Fixless

When you can't even
Ask for a picture.
You're paralyzed.
Not even one of a fixture.
You're fixed.
There's no way to fix yourself.
So just run away
And hide yourself.
Put your head down and
Hide the tears
Because that's easier
Than asking for help.
Even just for a picture.

I open scripture
And I see
Story after story
About how I don't need
To be strong
Because He is.
And that is supposed to
Show through me.

Most of the time
It does.
But what about
When I'm not?
When I fall apart
In my hiding spot?
When I cry about
All that I'm not?

How I'm not normal.
How I can't be normal.
How I can't act normal.
How I can't feel normal.

How anxiety overcomes me
And I can't fight it.
I only give in
And I can't stop
And it takes over my life.
And I pray,
But sometimes it slips
And I fall

Only gas.
Because the
Brake is
Broken.
