The damage was inside her,
Like the blood coursing in her veins.

Invisible cracks running under her porcelain skin.
Scars from the erosion of constant
Toxicity.

There's nothing more I wish to do
Than to fill in the cracks.

Sand and polish her
Back to prestine condition.

The way she was before the world
Wore her down.

i touched your soul
and scribbled my name on it
love, you’ll never get lost again

I hate that I'm so human
That I crave the closeness
We all are told, scientifically,
We need.
Babies will die without enough touch
Or interaction.

I sometimes wonder if I'm worse
Than others.

I need you
In ways I cant explain.
My desperation like a slowly emanating smoke bomb.
Invisible
But it still is clouding the room.
Maybe if I spoke up just once
We wouldn't be sitting here
Silently suffocating.

You choking on my passive subtleties,
And I'm gagging on my deeply craved, hidden,
Inner intamacies.
