or the year after that.
or the year after that
or the year after that.
i don't know where to put the soil, wildflowers, worms, and multicolored leaves.
i don't know where to put all the unfinished projects, and ideas.
i don't know where to put my daydreams of what i think would make me happy.
i don't know where to put my lack of trying.
i don't know where to put the guilt.
i don't know where to put the friends that i will lose,
or the friends i've already lost,
or the people i have forgotten
or pissed off
or hurt
or made upset.
i don't know where to put the bad parts of me.
i don't know where to put the tears i have shed and collected in a mason jar.
i don't know where to put the nervous breakdowns, and suicidal thoughts.
i don't know where to put my childhood toys— rubber lizards, a broken gameboy, pogs, legos, uno cards, board games, and marbles.
i don't know where to put my baby teeth
or the weight i'm losing.
i don't know where to put the songs that have been stuck in my head.
i don't know where to put all of the old letters from people who said, "i love you."
or the late night long distance phone calls.
i don't know where to put my heart if it is still beating.
i dont know where to put the unspoken words i will never say.
i don't know.
my closet and bedroom drawers are already filled from the last time i cleaned my room.
