(in my veins)

i will color the world

in red

til my veins bleed dry

til my body lies limp

on the ground.

i will spill my soul

like waves of a foamy ocean

crash

and the storm inside of me

will rage.

i will try to tell the world

what it looks like

inside of me

but it is like

clenched teeth

and bleeding lips.

i will scream

but no sound will come

and the desperation inside of me

will become a furious deluge

of poetry

begging to be written

no,

demanding

to be heard.

it is not blood in my vessels.

it is words.
