sandwiches

I can’t swallow a sandwich whole, trust me I’ve tried.

So instead I learned to chew it up first,

you know, like a normal person.

I can’t image i’d have gotten very far in my life without chewing my food

before I swallow it.

My thoughts are like sandwiches,

my brain tries and swallow them whole and unsurprisingly, it chokes.

Funny enough, it does this quite often,

this is why I write.

Writing and chewing are more similar than you might’ve thought.

writing helps me understand what’s going on upstairs,

otherwise I can’t process everything, maybe not even anything that I’m thinking,

my thoughts need to be in words first before I can even attempt to understand them.

I need to chew before I swallow.
