Today
Don't ask me
for help
or instructions
I don't want to talk today.
Don't tell me you
love me, that I'm funny
and smart.
I don't need reassurances today.
Don't prattle on with your
half-feigned martyr's sigh
about your schedule or
your problems.
I don't care today.
Today I'm invisible
silent and deadly. I'm soft
and sleepy, and feeling
self-indulgent.
Today I don't belong to you.

Do.
Not.
Change.
A.
Thing.
I like the childlike feel of this. "I am an adult, but I want to be a selfish little kid, so fuck off, you can't have any part of me today. Go away." Yes.
