Carve the imperfections from my skin.
"Is that a birth mark or a bruise?"
Light myself on fire, and let the fat sizzle from my flesh.
"You're fuckable, for a big girl."
Slice open my veins and purge them of every unwelcome memory.
"You are not capable."
Wrap razor wire around my heart so no one may reach it;
"I could never love you."
So should my heart ever swell again,
I will die.
