An epic battle with a cat,
An accident while cooking,
The lies dripped like syrup,
Stuck like tar,
Words inexplicably entwined with glass
That takes a while to draw blood.
Head off the tears,
Block them with sweet distracting pain
That lives a life under long sleeves.
Chimerical scars and fears,
Too real to be true,
My logic winds around a doctors mind,
Sense has no place in a world,
Where I burst out of my body, spilling,
Leaking, into everything else,
Or shrink like cold metal,
To a pit that cheer cannot reach.
I am sorry, I am sorry,
To cause you so much pain,
But tell me, tell me please,
If my flesh cannot split,
What else can I do?

This is so sad, that's all I can say. A good poem, but just so sad. Life is a rollercoster, you live for the ride. I hope you'll feel better soon.

Some things are meant to be in the dark.
