I would burn holes in my skin if you wanted to see my bones

I would peel back the skin of my arms if you wanted to see the veins that kept me living

I would degregate myself so that you could witness my soul in full

If you wanted to watch the clouds burn i would soak them in kerosene

And set them alight from my seat in the stars

If you wanted me to read you your favourite book

I would stay awake for days on end to memorise every word.

If you wanted to be a muse i would write you a poem so violent it was romantic

If you wanted nothing more then to lay in the ground with the bugs

I would crawl in with you and squeeze all the air from my lungs.

Suffocating the seconds, the minutes

the hours

until my vision disappeared and i wasn't able to see

Or hear

Or breathe

I would be sacrificial

More then willing

To lay in the earth and decompose

As long as you wanted me to stay

As long as you were willing to deal with my presence

Even in death.

I would lay in the earth with my burnt

Holey skin

Because you wanted to see what lay within.
