Bleeding Out LoudA Poem by LuuucyBased off a dream--with a hidden meaning I am still trying to fully understandI came up from underground A painful surge though my body Struck by lightning I look down, knowing, At my blood soaked clothes Drifting out of consciousness… I jolt back Mom suspended, expectantly Almost dead, pain searing Crying, straining-- I feel I am screaming But she doesn’t see in my plain sight "I’m bleeding out!" “Look! You’re not bleeding!” How does she not see? I can’t bring myself to look down At all that blood again. Until I do. There is no blood. This must be some trick of the mind Some twisted altered reality Because if I’m not bleeding How do I explain the pain I’m feeling? She’s walking away. How do I make her see? A barrier obstructs me As blood pools deep beneath me What will make her see
That I am
