wrap your fingers around my spine and find your way into my
brain and learn who i am and the secrets i will never speak
from my sowed tongue in a mouth that never opens.
run your fingers down the tendrils of my veins and find your way
to my heart and learn my deepest fears and quietest loves
that is trapped in a body that hates to be touched.
listen closely, put your ear to my chest, and figure out all the words that have been misspoken, misspelled, misplaced in my mind that was broken at birth and a heart that will be shattered at death.
