such a small body
made of sand and paper

frail bones and sticky fingers
with brittle nails and thin hair

such a small body
made of clouds and cloth

shrunken brain and smooth skin
with falling lashes and peeled lips

such a small body
a body made to break

i wants someone to like me
i want the care and affection that comes from love

i want to not feel alone
i want someone to be nice to me too

i thought i caught you
and instead you caught me
but you're loosening your grip
and i'm slipping down
but i can't grab onto you
because you're purposely letting me go
and i can't tell you to bring me back
because you're not ready for me
and you'll never catch me again

i miss the way we first met

i miss the way you treated me like a doll

i miss the subtle flirting words

i miss the times we forgot anyone else was in the room

i miss the crumble of my heart when you were sweet

why did you stop talking

do i know you

your breath is like ice
though i cannot feel it

your skin is like stone
though i cannot touch you
