Silverfish

I stare at the cracks in the wall

And melt into nothing

A silverfish slithering away, from everything

I pick at the cracks in the wall

The rats in the attic meandering by

I feel like I’m losing my grip on everything, I’m drifting away

I stare at the cracks in the wall

I think I’m unravelling

A silverfish slithering away, from everything, and everyone
