Graft Versus Host Disease

Pain…

My body is rejecting me
Implanted tissues are killing me

Rectification is unlikely
Promiscuous organism is not viable
My immunity died in agony
And the new one turned against me

My body is rejecting me
My own blood is poisoning me

I don’t want to die like this
Trapped in this wretched abyss

Dead fingers slide beneath my skin
This is mutiny within

The foreign graft
Has turned to be a traitor
That slowly makes me daft

The transplantation
Has gone all wrong
The inflammation
Is growing strong

I’m feeling this
This war in me
The skin necrosis
I begin to see

My heart works hard
Pumping adrenaline
Revolting piece of art -
The mutiny within

Dead fingers slide beneath my skin
This is mutiny within
Disease shows me its deadly grin
My body revolts.

My Body Revolts

Foreign components
Feast upon my guts
Dreadful moments
Drive me nuts

Intoxication
Drains my strength
Evil mutation
Slays my faith

I’m feeling this
This war in me
Torn into bits
By fear and anxiety

I feel it slowly moving
Under my thinning skin
I feel its rebel yell
The mutiny within

Dead fingers slide beneath my skin
This is mutiny within
Disease shows me its deadly grin
My body revolts.

Dead fingers slide beneath my skin
My body revolts.
