contamination

my thoughts carve fissures in the delicate skin of my wrist

and my demons play tug-of-war on my heart until it tears

and the hairline fractures in my heart go unnoticed by the world

but they bleed out and spread my disease

contaminating my whole body.

the flowers i had once thought were so beautiful

sliced open my skin with their thorns.

most of my poems are written at 3 in the morning.

if the capitalization bothers you just let me know.
