diSeAsE

she doesn't want to
but she almost can't help it
she can help it
she wants to help it
she doesn't know how
help her.

it was a scratch
she hid it
it got infected
became a boil --
bubbling with pus, mucus
it burst, it healed
not completely...

you poked at it
kept poking at it
it opened again
she tried to hide it
you caught her, stopped her
its sore, almost bleeding
shes fighting it
it pains. seriously. sometimes
help her
