there is an itch,
an itch deep inside me
I can feel this itch all over,
my left forearm
my left wrist
my left calf
my left hip
it was always the left side, huh?
what can I say, I’m right handed
never caught red handed
I can’t concentrate
all I can think about is
this set of silvery pleasure I have
how the feeling would glide deep in me
how it would make me feel like
perhaps now my feeling were validated
because I was bleeding
and mom always comforted me
when I was bleeding
because bleeding meant
an injury
that I was hurt
