#susceptible
Oh flesh of mine Why are you there? So susceptible, fragile, Like a piece of fabric Oh flesh of mine What are you for? Just a piece of meat, A limit of its own Oh flesh of mine How do you work? You scratch, bleed, Break, and hurt, Oh flesh of mine Oh flesh of mine How do you survive? Such cruelties there are Oh flesh of mine Why do you suffer? Why do I suffer? Why do you limit? Why do you hurt? Oh flesh of mine…

Oh flesh of mine
Loneliness and depression are like parasites, adapting to their new host bodies They will cling to anything that it can. Something with an open wound, someone weak in the flesh - susceptible. For these are their preferred feasting grounds, and I’m their favorite company.
