A&E

Wounds that are fatal,

Can't be seen by the naked eye,

Under the skin and inside of the mind,

Someone call A&E,

Because they destroyed me,

Words like knives cutting into my insecurities,

Holding me back and trying to control me,

Blood poured from wounds,

Red stains on my happiness,

Acting as if I'm an extension of them,

Like a cable you would charge a computer with,

Breaking my bones until I couldn't feel them,

Until I just couldn't anymore,

I needed life support,

Not them anymore,

That's when it hit me,

I'm going to live my life regardless of their opinions,

I'm going to travel, get married, have babies,

Fuck every single wicked word they ever said to me,

In this emergency,

I will heal and emerge,

As a better human being,

This A&E is my church,

God's my doctor.
