Yellow Soft

9 1 1
                                    

Dim light filled with promise and an underlying timidness that everyone's felt at some point

Let me pull off my yellow sweater so that when I lay down I'll be able to feel the softness of lips planting a single kiss in the center of my ribs

Scattered strawberry seeds on the mattress that have fallen off my shoulders

I feel as though I'm made of glass with colors reflecting off my skin and bouncing back towards the earth, burrowing deep

Hearing the sound of paper crinkling, I realize that I'm unwrapping

Layers are coming undone

Beginning to stretch themselves out

Expanding and expanding and expanding

Like the tiny threads in my sweater that were pulled apart
