You Will Never Know What "I" Have Been Through

I was burning in my own torture chamber,

While you baked a pie and split it with your sister.

I never walked my own path, just where I was dragged.

You think I didn't eat salt and razorblades for breakfast?

The throbbing beat that is the cadance of my death

Is inaudible to you I suppose.

If go away is your mantra.

Excuse me,

I'll let you get back to meditating.
