Anguish

I peel off all the emotions,
one by one, they slither to the ground
Of all of them, sorrow clings on to me.
I pull, I yank, I put all my strength 
it rips my flesh off, exposing the bones  
I can hear my wound scream
spewing out the hatred, 
and I lay on the floor, in the pool of my blood
spent, exhausted, light, dreamless.
