my stomach kills
every bite
is agony
full of regret with the passing hours
this is my reality now
my head pounds
every thought
a dull thud
deadened to the world around me
this is my reality now
my lungs break
every breath
a sharp intake
bringing a flood of stab wounds
this is my reality now
my body aches
every motion
a single shift
full of stiffness
this is my reality now
my happy dead
every action
hiding the grief
no one knowing but me
this is my reality now
for six months
this is my reality now
stomach crying
head pounding
lungs bursting
nerves screaming
still smiling
this is my reality now
the only positive?
i'm one hell of a liar
