Bumps



“The findings dictate I should undergo operation. My gallstones cannot be treated by medicine alone. The doctor said I'm also diabetic and that while my hemoglobin is low, my uric acid is high. She told me, too, that my thyroid would be monitored because there’s a lump in it.”

by: Karlo Jose Pineda

the news came as a wall
to which i collided with.

the smash silent yet strong,
horrid yet hidden.

and i was left frail on the floor
dreaming of amnesia

—even if it can't unmouth
what life—yours—

had terribly spoken.
