at the end of a long week
i sat on a child sized chair
at a child sized table
and teetered on the edge
of my emotions
i laughed
so i wouldn't cry
and talked
so i wouldn't think
colored the paper
ripped the paper
stapled the paper
friends sat confused
stared softly
laughed nervously
and shook heads --
one drew me a picture
"kylee," it read
"i love you,
even when you are crazy"
i felt myself take one step back from the edge
