But I Am Not Alone

‘She’s like this because she’s lonely’
They say, giving to me what I already own
As a present from the heart that pretends
To bleed and arbitrarily makes amends.
Gratitude has no place when faces
Blend into blurs of matter wasted
And starved…the scars heal every time
So why do you worry? Everything’s fine.
Exterior actions wash over unchecked
I’ll live, I’ll refrain, I’ll forbear, I’ll forget
But I am not alone, the other one
Sits and smirks and has begun
To blot our chemicals with mud
The gift, the curse of running blood
Pollutes the whitest pages dark
Weighing down the hopeful heart
Into the awful depths where skin
Is violent, forced between within
And ostracised, we go hand in hand;
Shackled, dragged, twinned and damned.
