Stigma

A stigma exposed and spreading

My attempts to cover it in vain

Like wildfire fueled by insecurity

Impervious even to heavy rain

Stain unrestrained - shamed, insane

Pestilent blemish without a remedy

Immune to the resistance

Adapting to vicarious means

A parasitic existence

Viral euthanasia - missing identity

Captured in a temporal cell

Crying out within these four walls

In need of anything to quell

This pain, an answer to my calls

Forgotten - infectious quarantine

Languishing this state of being

Soon, the stigma will devour me

Fighting to retain dominance

For when I can truly be free

Dissipating - shade permeates
