I Need a Band-Aid
Why must this world bleed
when I bleed
Why must I bare burden
upon me
Why does life make me
angry
Why must I feel so
empty
Yet I am still here
In envy
Lacerations go deep
so deep
toxic air It is
heavy
In my lungs
i must
i must breath
I'll never show how much
I need you
You'll never know how much
you need me
Until the day you no longer
see me
Why must this world bleed
when I bleed
