I can't tell you that when your words prick me like thorns on a beautiful rose bush they're ugly. I can say that when your hands are in my tangles and I am melting in your chamber of love— arms, I am thrilled to be around that horrific laugh of yours because the sound of your happiness justifies my bad childhood.

You make my mind go black like the night sky that I usually stare at for comfort. Your eyes gently see me for who my body consists of.

Your words— they heal my shredded soul.
