the unravelling

i split my chest in two and

stitched the cracks in my ribs.

it's been hard to breathe in this body~

disintegrating organs/ broken bones//

unravelling skin– and

somewhere beyond this undone vessel,

the sun shines–

disrupting the peace behind my eyes

heating the air that passes through my nose

and despite it all/ i'll dig beneath the marshy surface

buried. silent.

until i heal again
