Days of change

The days roll in
Like Santa's elves to the toy shop.
They don't stop.

Salivation drips from the lips
Of the day's maw ----
The wet mouth 

Devouring little bits of me too
Slowly so I can't tell
When all of me is consumed.

Likely more than not
I mightn't ever have been that whole 
To begin with.

Probably I leaned 
More into being emptied 
So my pale was never full.

The house is a cave I live in
And the days are cruel.
Though the sun is round 

I sleepwalk around.
Exactly when I wake up is when true
Nightmares start 

And at the mercy of the world am I.
Now I think the days
Can be kind.

I decide I can even fall between the lids
Of others eyes
Being seen as 
me

And not being accused of being a liar.

This is quite complex and to me full of loneliness and despair but also acceptance of that. I understand this. 
Nothing is expected anymore.
I love these lines
