my body rebels

Every inch of my body is screaming, blazed with fire

There's lightning between my shoulder blades

Rain dripping from my dewy greens

And electricity weaving between my tendons

 

There is a chainsaw cutting my bones

There are needles piercing through my chest

There is lava rushing through my veins

There is a hurricane in my head

 

I can feel my cells shrinking

I can feel my branches breaking

I can feel my leaves crumbling

 

Everything hurts and there is no remedy

This is the life of inevitable misery
