Hair

Your hair was always beautiful,

Long and luciousous,

Everyone always loved it. 

But then you cut it off. 

Long strands fly away to the floor,

While you're in the bathroom, 

Closed door. 

You open it. 

You ask me to help. 

Cutting your hair away felt like a crime,

Luckily, I was willing to break the law for you.

  • Delicate

    I am delicate,

    not fragile,

    please handle me as such.

     

    I was crafted,

    perfected,

    but I will crumble under your touch.

     

    I am easy to break

    because I am not meant to be broken,

  • Wanted

    I wonder if I can't get over you

    Because I can't get over being wanted

     

    There was something special about being wanted

    Knowing you'd talk for hours about me

    And go out of your way to see

  • Reality

    I hold my breath 

    Until we are free 

    Free 

    To simply 

    Be. 

    And I watch myself suffocate

    Forgive me. 

    I forgot what is of our reality
