You're Abel, I'm Cain.
**** you -
Sister, my ruler -
Get me out of this chain!
Look at me!
I am more than a sick, lifeless sign
I am more than the marks on my skin.
I am more than an error
I am more than a lesson -
I am more than a merciless sin.
I have killed you,
Or maybe -
It was you who hurt me -
When you told me all about those "marvelous words",
That would contain me
So I could not flee.
But why should I be like the others? Why should I be like you?
After all, I am the sigh
I am the bane
I am the murderer of innocence
I am
Cain.

does a lonely childhood **** a person?
maybe
if not, the way everyone else smells it on you does
there is something wrong with you
you are not whole
“where is your other half”
everyone asks you
and you just keep saying “i dunno, i dunno”
and they tell you to be grateful
because you never were hated as a kid
and maybe you weren’t but you are hated now for it
you do not know how to be a person because of it
and you can never say we were children together
because you were not children with anyone except for yourself
and you will bury your childhood alone
and you will bury your parents alone
and they keep telling you to be so so grateful that you never had to share anything
but this loneliness has you by the throat and
you would rather have someone who hated you than nobody at all

some nights i think i am cain without an abel
i hate my brother for never having been
i carry him, keep him, like he happened
he is heavy and i have never met him
i would hate him if he was flesh and i wish he were me
i killed him before he was alive, ruined eve's body by living
i am the first poisoned crop that made the field untillable
i killed him as he slept and i hadn't met him yet
some nights i hear him around the house
he lives in the gaps in my mother and father's conversation
some nights i think i am cain
missing an abel more for never having held him
