Will leave you with blood-full veins,
But drain you of identity
Till nothing of “You” remains.

Stranger

What do you breath? Toxins 
What do you feel? Nothing
What do you look like? Faceless
Who are you? I don't know yet

Behind everyone lies a story
To those unwilling to unveil,
To the heart of the free
Bones buried in the closet labeled, past
