--Getting over writer's block... There are tabs before each "it's me," but they'll just be left aligned for now.
It's Me
When it's not you, it's me-
running around in ovals 'cause I can't perfect direction.
When I am cracking at each joint and strewing bones across your doorstep, you step outside and greet me with a laugh that makes me stand up straight even though I really feel like sinking.
You treat me to tragedies and tricks pulled from your sleeve, but you're a smiling creature, a half-full boy, and I spend my days dying.
When I dream, I see you crying on a day when I can't wipe a smile off of my face. I run to comfort you, and joke with you, and make you fall in love with every positive nerve that makes a trail throughout my body.
But I keep in mind the fact that you'll never be the person I hate most inside myself, because-
when it's not you breaking down, it's me.

I really liked this stanza - something I know others are able to relate to. Great job!
