*****
i am bleeding
and i don't know why
there's a hole in my chest
ripping me slowly apart
filled with blackness
and i lose myself in its deeps

family can stop the blood
it is a hiding place
like gravity is turned off
and red rivers can't flow
but the moment i get out of the cave
i bleed out again like a waterfall
and i don't know how to build a boat
