I learned to count early
Read the bible too
Wrath, punishment
Seemed no absolution
Separate at five
In the morning
When I was defiled
Five screams a minute
Five shiny points from
The glass shards
Five fingers, to check off
As I calculate
In five minutes I'm clean
and new
Separated by five degrees
Five from what I don't want
To remember, anything green
Black or brown
Make it easier
Five letters/numbers are my friends
The ceiling fan;
Wood, glass, white, brown, brass
Another set of quints
A quick escape
When I should need one
My rabbit hole wiith
Back-doors aplenty
Five senses all shut down
I've got good and can count
Before what might happen
Safe in numbers, hidden
When I seperate from myself.

It has been so long since I have been here. I understand this as seperation=survival....at least mentally and that leads to the survival of the body and soul as well.
I know these feelings intimately...they are part of my group of secret friends.
Excellent write my friend.
The beauty of your soul shines through.Thank you for being brave and sharing...it helps.
