#deformed
That mix of best wishes admiration and pity - fermenting and bubbling in me as soon as I see her My stomach and throat are churning They deform my humanity Her eyes shoot faster than my thoughts her head reaches around the corner to the sun, a rock is lying lazy in her lower back Shaking knees One leg swings around the other feet behind each other Her arms cry to heaven and wring out my powerlessness

old memory 21/3/4b
A wound reopens when you least expect it Be it through running Being clumsy Or though repeating a simple mistake Should my lack of intelligence Be a punishable crime? Was my trusting nature just not meant for existing? I realize through your glazed stare You lack remorse. Being alone was a terrifying choice, Perhaps I should have harden the shell. The shell has far to many cracks that fail to mend properly. Deformity should be eradicated

Deformed
I was changed. Altered by your words. Forever deformed... Never to be recognized. No longer me. But scraps of what I used to be. Your words were knives. And they slit me. Ripped me. Don't you see; the effect of the words you speak? Now, may I please R.I.P.

You did this.
The Man with the deformed hands Happy as he could ever be Everyone posing queries to him How he could ever be so happy They couldn't see he was happy to be Unique and different to all others A stamp of light everyday he lived While loneliness carved his heart out Pieces at a time And nobody saw him losing his war The Man with the deformed hands
