Why Can't You See?
Do not lie to me
Because I see crystal clear
And I am begging you to say
The phrase I need to hear
Those magic heavy words
Would make my reality live
This precious fleeting gift
Could be the one you give
Though life and love hurt
The pain feels good
Slices old wounds open
Once more like it should
I am done with tears
And over-dissection
No more obsessing
Over beauty and perfection
With nowhere to run
I am floating in a freeze
I am trapped in a body
No one else sees
An old one back when all i wanted was to lose weight
#see
