Just beneath my skin There is resentment Leaking through the pores Drop by drop Staining the floor Leaving marks And barricading doors I feel marked Disgusted and weak Facing future That looks bleak When you sit beside me There is three of us at least The devil is always here Waiting to be unleashed The rot I gathered through exposure Pumps seamlessly through my veins It reached my heart And one day will reach the brain It seems hard to reach me You can't get close enough to touch I know there is a flame beneath me And the floor ain't much Let it scorch me Let me burn Outside and From within Without hope The flame is bound to win
