Withering skin shrivels onto hugging ribs, Tighter and tighter, the flesh grows. No meat between the bones, Nor weeping upon this humble abode, Just a silence that continues to grow.

Bony Knees
Withering skin shrivels onto hugging ribs, Tighter and tighter, the flesh grows. No meat between the bones, Nor weeping upon this humble abode, Just a silence that continues to grow.
They don’t get how hard it is for me to eat. At times it almost makes me sick to the point where if I take a bite and try to chew I gag. Something I’ve struggled with for a long time..eating something so simple controls such a big part of my life..something people don’t seem to understand
