"unjulates" poems
A fire ignites
Inside my very ******* self
Pain unjulates
From each nucleus
Of every single living cell
Out through my tattered bones,
To my skin
That burns to the touch
My sinews
Feel severed
The pressure from each step
Shoots electricity up through my spine
The release of each step
Throbs with each heartbeat
I can feel my blood
Rush through my veins
And even that
Steals my breath
My tread
Breaks tempo
With a limp
I drag my throbbing feet
Weighted by exhaustion
And hours of constant
Vibrating hurt
The doctors say it's in the neurons
Of my brain.
They misinterpret
Touch as pain
So I live in constant
Chaos
Wondering if there will ever be a day
Where my cells will silence
And I will find some relief
