My stomach hurts rhythmically, my heart beats when it wants I never sleep when I want to and I choose the stressful nights to try My blood flows backwards, I choke on my words, and my food, and your name, and the truth I’m an inside out backwards ******* fool; I see both wheels going left when I’m not supposed to I see your hate when I should see your love I am my own hero and nemesis in a single comic strip I trip on my feet, and swallow my tongue, I bite my finger until it goes numb My ears don’t ring, they hiss I’m not a lemon, I’m poison I’m a mislabeled bottle of hazardous chemicals I am something that should’ve been recalled
