I have discovered myself in this world

That sells natural beauty as imperfections

In-between shows for little boys and girls,

Then give prescriptions for the depression.

I clawed six feet to see the sun again,

But damn, warmth spoke memoirs of torment,

Back when I burned my face with chemicals

And used them as mystical supplements

To give everything they took away. 


I discovered myself through an onslaught

On reminders that I will never truly be alive.

But in the midnight hour, my wounds bleed.

Sometimes I wish I didn't survive.
