we must suffer to create

by Ava Blu

there are sores on my gums,
your easy accusations
proof of your existence

that’s what I learned from you;
how to inflict without wincing

do you see it?
ulcers
“lie bumps”

but I haven’t lied

these are your scars
your proof

is it still significant to you?
you say no, it isn’t now,

and finally,
we agree.

I know I say this all the time of your work...but this is just...really, really good. Reminds me why I tend to wish I knew you in real life. Heh. Sad as that probably sounds. In any case, another shot out of the park. I love it.

And I'll just agree with everything Gabriel said, 'cuz I don't want to leave the exact same comment. LOVE!
