You only want me flawed
To do what you cannot -
Accept your own mess
Love yourself to the best
It's a selfish desire
Dire wolves to be fed
I am earth, not your soul
Never plastic, I'm flesh
Unbound by blinding lights
Strong emotions, distress
Insecurities, true
But no fear I confess
My weak flesh is now new
Muscles, stronger, I said
"Bullet-proof, self-preserved
To feel nothing, I guess"
