I pick at the skin around my fingers like a needle sewing through decorative fabrics.
I tear the skin off like erasing a mistake made in pencil.
I let them bleed watching intrigued, like water falling from a showerhead.
I let them hurt me like a child who hasn't learnt their lesson yet.
But I rip them off because it tells me I'm alive.
I bleed like everyone else.
I feel like everyone else.
Well... for a while anyway.
