I am a house of cards
in a land where vulnerabilities are barred.
The air stinks of flesh and pain,
some nights I sing about all that I contain.
Tears leave my cheeks looking pale,
my hair uneasily stick to my face.
There is a strange tightening in my throat,
I gulp it down,
but it refuses to let go.
The left side of my head
throbs excruciatingly
and a void echoes of what once had been.
It's like the screeching of claws
on a blackboard,
Lemon on a cut lip.
