I Am Devastation

My poor mom. 

It’s like I can feel her tears in my palm. 

But I am only grasping my consciousness. 

Because if I sleep, I shall be giving new scars in this mess. 

I am sorry for being a devastation. 

Mom, I want to trade this fever of revelation. 

The reality floats, I can barely see. 

Like these red, beeping dots, it only flashes in me.
