The Essence Of Who I Am

It hurts so much

I can feel the prickling beneath my teeth

Tomorrow forgot to call back

I’m sitting along with my grief

The cold thoughts haunt me

Tie me down like in that surgical bed

I throw up my anger over and over again

They put my body back together with red sewing thread

No one listens to me

I am just an experiment

I made them more money

I stop because my grief has stopped to

Licked my wounds like a dog

Everyone forgot I had surgery

Or maybe they forgot to tell me my body failed me

Or maybe they just didn’t want to tell me

I pay all the medical bills

Grief hands me the receipt

Its name written at the top

Underlining its free lifetime warranty

Grief is just love

Grief is just grief

M.A.P
