you remind me of spring

of life,

of a mother's womb being emptied only to your screaming

but it's okay, you're alive

you're healthy

of course, the doctors never took into account that you may very well be...

catostrophic

breaking hearts, and slashing wrists of your own like they belonged to the man who took your innocence

i found you in a bathtub, close to the brim with bloody water

i could turn this into some ironic metaphor, but i am too busy calling 911
