#saviorcomplex
I stand before you
my pieces put together in shapes
that do not cut when you get close
edges turned onto myself
press your lights against my chest
the coloured pieces of my hurt
shine in a mosaic
"you are so fragile, love"
"let me take care of you"
My eyes are closed
and I let myself be swallowed
into your words
they are cold but embracing
possessive and enveloping
Cradled and helpless
my pieces shift for the mold you've made
you tell me my pain is beautiful
and I let you eat my pieces up
until there is no more of me
and there I am, an empty shell
looking to be filled
seeking for the hands
and hoping they give me back
I don't know who I am without you.
