And you sit and you wonder how you could&#8217;ve lied for so very long and ignored it or not known you were doing it. Doing it to yourself.

		<description><![CDATA[Worry can&#8217;t fall asleep tonight,
Wrapped in prickly beads of sweat,
So she resolves to pacing through the dark empty hallways.
***
Vanity turns away from the mirrored reflection
Clothed in faux gold and silver ornaments,
Disturbing the stale perfume settled around her.
***
Insanity jumps out from his hidden niche
Harnessing a straight jacket, and with gnashing teeth
Demands you reconsider; &#8220;THIS IS NORMAL.&#8221;
***

In this broken net of dreams,

An heirloom sits safe in the cupboard; a twenty year old blanket that you knitted for my birth. Navy blue and white; still soft, but a little worn.
