Sandpaper Skin By Grace Espinoza Sand paper hands Stitched up by stories Whispered through pores Devoured by your rough palms Swallowing soft flesh You cling Looming Eyes widened Expanded by curiosities Familiar fingertips A naivety so tangible Pulses behind flesh Wrapped in Anchored arms Sends light rushing Flooding Into my darkest depths Molded my soft skin Hardened it Thickened shell Sandpaper hands Stitched up by stories Weaved into my brain
