PERSON Poem: DOING, by Maezy Reign

October 18, 2024

t’s fucked up
and i mean that in the best way, in a way that you would say holding a neice or nephew for the first time. in a way that you would say skydiving or bungee jumping or storm chasing.

it’s fucked up
and i mean it in the way that i could sleep forever with her in my arms. i mean it in the way that im obsessed with her

it’s fucked up that this is a new kind of happiness. in the way that i’ve experienced new emotions in the past couple months. in the way that i didn’t have to be fucked up to fuck her, in the way that it didn’t feel like fucking

i’m fucked up
in the way that i’m not sure how she’s picked me. in the way that all of my insecurities have become static. in the way that i understand all the bullshit people say in the honeymoon phase. in the way that i’m fundamentally changing.

i’m totally and utterly fucked up. in the way that i’m shedding 21 like a snake. in the way that this girl is changing my life. in the way that i’m becoming. and becoming. and becoming.
