All Those Things

Prickly thorns,

stinging bees,

all those things I cannot feel

yet they wound me.

Porcelain skin,

misty eyes,

all those things I want

but this imperfection won't leave me.

Broken bones,

stolen dreams,

all those things that I don't desire

yet this nightmare keeps haunting me.
