By Request: Confronted

Confronted
==========
With each drop of blood,
They get no closer to a reason —
Only more pain
To release my inner treason.

Trading my life
For self image;
Labeling my own worth,
Trying only to salvage.

Hidden from you
Only to be felt inside;
No substitutions this time,
For the pain testing my pride.

I’ve all but stopped
Trying to explain;
Writing only to contain
The evidence that remanis.
