Liquid State

by isobel-g

I want to take apart my skin when the sun is too bright and the world is too full of people who will never know me. I want to open the rivers inside my wrists and empty them; to pour myself away the way I pour whisky into my empty stomach, and my hypothermic limbs into stranger's beds.
