26/F For the loving and the living...
I write out then I bleed Somehow I also forget the names But this feeling Creeps in Like I was born for that For the moment you're in It could be my memory Or me grinding my teeth It could be how I walked the hallways Or when I took the smoke and breathed Maybe it's nothing, or maybe it's all... I guess it's more the way I sleep Aching for the caring hand That never touched my hair Or my face I breathe the morning I do as well with the smoke I do well when I bleed I do as they tell and more I'm just here to please

Bleed
It started when I was born Or maybe when I grew old That’s when I knew the me I used to be had no clue I hated my age I hated what I could become Then, strangely, I found peace at the bottom of the lake I thought that’s where I belonged No noise Nothing I could see Like before I was born unable to breathe Maybe it was my age Maybe it was my eyes But my soul was taken and in that silence I couldn’t feel happier enough

The lake
I ****** your fingers As if they might remember me Didn’t ask for much And I came back as always, empty.

It's a weapon I was told I need to cover It's my body, My soul, And my laughter. How could you look at me —your daughter — And believe I'm trying to tempt my own brother ? She says my body Speaks too boldly That I have to soften my edges, Hide my hips, and round out my corners. Cutting down my legs To look like less, To not ****** Like you warned me, Back when I was smaller. But tell me, How could you protect your sons When you never learned How to have a daughter?

Daughter
I'm obedient That's one truth But don't paint me orange Just to come And pour your darkest blue

Obedient
He liked my clothes, When I pushed them to the ground. He liked the smell of the night, The darkest skin on the tips of my fingernails. He liked the body—or probably me— And he never cried when I touched the ground. I knew I had met a man, And somehow, he could've been softer, if only he could hold my hand. He said it didn't matter, To live together, With no strings attached. He could be all over me, No longer saying he loved me Exactly No strings attached
