i'm trapped
within a body that isn't my own
when did i become foreign to myself?
my skin
wound tightly
around fragile bones and delicate blood
that don't belong to me.
no matter how i cover it
it doesn't change the shape underneath.
a dandelion growing in a daisy garden.
a star shining bright at noon.
the universe picked the wrong star dust
when giving my soul a home.
