if the heavens paid any attention
to me, they will see
my black hands and
their closed throats,
and they will all agree
that i'm a
suffocator.

if society dared to listen
to my silent cries, they will see
the dried tears on my cheeks
and a throbbing heart,
and they will all agree
that i am the
creator of
my own
catastrophe.

and if the world thought to care
about the one who was wasting away,
they will see my
blank thoughts eating at me
and a hollow soul,
and they will all agree
that i am the
designer
of my own
destruction.
