How a serious sickness, well...
(Fickle disease, might I add)
It becomes a wall.
A threat beyond any measure of pain previously.
How a serious sickness
Becomes a tease.
An insult.
How it becomes a type of outfit...
A type of look.
How a serious sickness
Kills 4,627 to date
And STILL...


It has become a taste.
It's a knowing!
A pass into society or a card into
The Azkaban of the school hierarchy.
Lord knows how those 4,627 feel
knowing
  That I... AALIYAH                                                      
Am them.
Not in sickness...










But in health.
See, I was groomed MALLET AND CHISEL
To be ugly, a nerd, scary, stupid, clingy, an animal:
You, my love... You were NOT a tease.

And I am sorry. For them. For you.
