REJECTING REALITY

By Lillibit Ray

after the accident

your light brown eyes turned dark

missing bliss

blind to joy

and you tried desperately

to access former versions of yourself

head wound but a nightmare

nothing more

and I said “you’re alive”

and you responded, “I’ve changed”

and this awareness

crushing, unbearable

would seal your fate
