Reflected glass
Cut through the past
Just another faded line
I tearfully design

Haematic
Eleutherophobia
Lethiferous
Pacificate

The skin
It heals,
But not
The heart.

A different story.
A different part.
I memorize the lines
That tear me apart.

I wear my mask
So you can see
Just how happy
I can be.
