your nose doesn’t bleed
and your blood isn’t blue
and waves at the beach
don’t come crashing into you
so that isn’t the reason
for your watery eyes
you aren’t shattered or broken
you’re just delicate
like a porcelain cup
you were holding a solution
that made your insides rotten
you created your own poison
you’re a conqueror
don’t drown
this world was made for you
