Con(de)ceit

by Jayme L Helmick

First time in a long time

ME

Numb, overcome with every emotion, so I shut down

ME

The skin is dry, brittle

ME

Easy to pierce

ME

The glass a separator of flesh and faith

ME

Streaming crimson anguish

ME

A pouring out of my losses in life

ME


The wound is deeper than it appears.

Me too. Wish I didn't know these feelings at all. And I don't even like the taste of blood or the feel of it seeping out. I wish I could grow my skin thick enough but there is no time.
