since i am 7-teen and i feel infantile

since i am 7-teen and i feel infantile by Josefina Eggleton

Before i was myself i was myself

Still i am myself

Every second i am a different self

Yet i am each self

My selves wrap around each other

Jackets on myself

Jackets of myself

Still i am myself

One day i will die and split in two

Perfect down the center

And you will count me like a trees rings

Youll find i am every me i ever was

Maybe youll try to peel the years back

But they will stand like layers of stone

When im buried i will still be myself

Every second still a different self

My selves will slip off

The earth on myself

Myself will become the earth

Still as the dirt

I will be myself

Every piece myself
