reversible poem

by @scndplace

i hate myself/ and thats why/ im not living inside of my body/ im living inside my brain/ my heart is cold and hard because/ you never touch me with kindness/ you always hold my fragile body with hostility/ my weak body drapes pathetically over your arm/ i melt/ you always charm me and thats why/ i’m crying/ you lied to me/ im stuck wondering who killed me only to find that/ im looking in a mirror/ covered in blood/

Notes

after reading it forwards read it line by line backwards. idk i wanted to try my hand at it

edit: this.. doesn’t work on mobile so i added forward slashes to indicate the end of a line
