the reason I will never donate my organs

is because they contain something

more dangerous than any infection

I can feel it linger inside

like steam trapped underneath a lid

it only escapes me when everything is overflowing

spilling out my disease for everyone to see

I never wanted them to know but it's hard to hide

when everything you feel pushes to be heard

the reason I will never donate my organs

is because misery has reached

every crease and wrinkle in my skin

and no one would want to salvage that
