(Scars)
And she asks me why I'm uncomfortable
Like it's a question I can answer
How do I explain the blue cavities underneath my skin?
I rattle like a box of nearly empty candy
Bare underneath clothes
And loud — I feel exposed under her touch like a dying cell on a microscope lense
Screaming and sighing
I breathe my last blue breath
To wonder
(Up at no one)
If I'll ever be able to tell the truth
