The blood drips from her eyelashes
Onto her punched out heart filled with smoldering ashes
Her bladder churns out a burning pool of pain
While her hands are numb from sewing love knots in vain
Her legs keep running even while her bones become brittle
Quietly her nose tastes the bile that rises from the childhood cradle
This is how a mind aches
