Tummy Ache

Curled up on the bathroom floor

Holding my stomach

My large intestine spilling out of the large crevice in my front

I look down

Everything is red

I never liked the color red

I think it's overrated

Everyone likes the color red

Except when it's flooding out of you

This feeling

This feeling of nothing

Emptiness

A hungry void that's eating all of my hope

I hear a knock at the door

Or is that my external heart beating?

I hear someone call out

But I respond, despite the blood spilling out of the corners of my mouth

That i'm okay

I just have a tummy ache.
