I will never be the same again. But truly who ever was I? The foundation never formed, All there ever was – is mourning. Died then revived. Died and revived once again. Continuously digging myself up from the grave. A wraith amongst the dead, I cannot rest because I have never truly lived. Necromancy upon my soul, A constant yearning to finally be whole. A body covered in dirt and scars. Yet I am determined to make it beautiful. A heart full of spite, yet bursting with love. An incautious desire to one day be enough. I refuse to rest until I experience what real, safe human touch feels like. Place a hand upon my sulphuric body. I was once so afraid but now I am begging. Please take it away, please tell me I am not ***** I suppressed it all but now I'm overflowing. I care not who you are, please just love me. Lay me down amongst the green. Put all your limbs on top of me. Make imprints upon this rotten flesh, until I can finally feel clean. A body barren and hollow, A body that only knows shame. My bones are coated in it, Words spewing it, Tears pouring with it. All I am is shame. She used to smile so innocently when she was young. With a laugh like a howling winds great bellow. She would fantasise about her first love, I let her down. Now I am screaming, snarling, spitting. Resenting a world that I was foolish to trust. Drive a stake through my heart, I ask of you to wish me peaceful rest. Hopefully this time I will not rise again. Banished.
