[hometext] =>
[bodytext] => Beauty is found in lacerations. The way the red flows so flawlessly Mingling with the flow of despondency Pulsating—resiliently with each heartbeat Lingering within the walls of the wound. For just a moment Until the life overflows To form rivers of scarlet Flowing the extent of my forearm Before gravity overcomes One perfect drop falls to the floor, Almost in slow motion For I know that even as I spill all That my body has struggled to create, More is forged from deep within Awaiting the day when it too Shall know the pleasure of the fall.
