It sticks on the walls
It wanders around the house
it disguises itself
as love
and good food
that you devour
because it was made for you
sometimes
it stays hidden behind the materials
they buy for you
or the care
you receive
when you become physically ill
but when it comes out
it doesn't affect your physical health
it takes a toll on your mental one
your brain fills with haze
your veins just on the edge of
exploding
because this is the toxicity
you were trying to avoid
