Everything happens for a reason


you are sensitive


when my fish died you cried gallons,

filled the empty tank with salty water

saltwater,

the goldfish would drown.


and the crying didn’t stop when we went to

that cinema downtown

during a fight scene

in a disney movie


and then your nose scrunched up

in that fancy mall

when faint flowers pierced through the air

you said they are lustful and petrifying

it was perfume.


in my attempt to argue with the waitress in that cafe

last wednesday

your ears tighten like folding lilypads

calling me a public menace.


i dont know why a tiny bug

in the shower makes you jump

or why wait outside the convenience store until

the stray dog leaves


you are too sensitive


i am Introverted,

words bubbling a brewing concoction

stirring, waiting for the dam to open

but my lips stay locked


i am Intuitive,

cannot control the flowing rivers

impulses entice me


i am Feeling,

eternal dance on fire

the red organ pulses against a bony white ribcage 

banging - until i interlock with whomever i want


i am Judging

a twitch is a tornado

a sigh is a siren


mistake each smile for a frown

i am Turbulent

i am sensitive

i hate it


all i can do is tear my heart for others until

the pieces don't fit together anymore.
