i was startled by an arm stroke
intentional or un-
either way i can never be ignored
theres something happening.
i am nothing like i used to be.
i was rotten on the inside
and the maggots were festering from within
everyone could smell the stench as i walked by
and no one was innocent to my design
trying to bleed out the poisions enbedded in my skin,
you were dying to feel me by your side
begging god please
cleanse everything of mine
today i am different
i will never crave the pain or sell my soul so easily
my face has changed,
my skin tone bears color
and my name rolls off the lips in a new manor
i ripped the knives out one more time
and the wounds have healed over nicely.
yet something i have recently discovered
has been left behind.
a small little inch of what once was.
and i am finding myself stealing every bit of it that i can
i would wait for you if you existed.
in this shell of a corpse i would wait for you
intentional or un-
i would bleed for you.
