I wish my nails were petals
So I wouldn't scratch at my insecurities cutting them open and letting them bleed,
Bringing attention to them for the world to see

Instead I would wish to caress them so that they might revel in the gentle treatment
And the itches on my soul would only become but a memory to propel my growth and betterment
