I was spilling out words and brokenness I didn't even understand
I felt insecure and unsettled in measures that didn't have a way to be explained
And then I met your eyes
And I realized that I never had to be afraid again

I'm not an alcoholic
-
I'm a writer

Break me open
Untie my scars
Pull out every secret
Every burn

Kiss me undone
Take this mess
And discover every hidden piece
Hiding in the sheets

Unravel my soul
Touch me so gently
Like you might break me
Pull me close and dive into my mind

Undo me
Every piece
Bare upon the sheets
Break me open

I'll spend forever searching for the words to explain what you do to me
Because it's all immeasurable when it comes to you
And the way I unravel at your smile

I became a poet
In the hopes of becoming someone's poem
