my heart is a war zone.
bullets of pain shoot through
me. my hand lands on my chest
as i close my eyes, trying to
endure the pain that never ends.

my brain is a war zone. and i
can't think because it hurts to.
all i can do is turn you into poetry,
and piece you together with my
imagination.

my thumb is a war zone. it bleeds
to splatter words of guilt and
confusion on the floor around
me. words that only i can see,
words that are invisible to
everyone else.
