Tell me your secret.
I'll bleed it from you if I must
for I could never find someone
who holds a pen as if it was water
like you do.
Fluid. united. one.
I wish I was paper.
Scented, if you will.
Lilac.
Gloriously naked as I wait
for you to give me what you got.
Scar me with all your might, transpose
all sensations on me.
I am open.
Increase your pressure.
The strokes of a soul I wish to be
one with.
your heartache, my pain.
and i will tell your story
exactly the way you tell it.
Perfectly placed punctuations
will be my breaths.
dent me, that's how i will
become beautiful.
blot on me like a wanton lover
about to explode.
i'll take all of you,
even in hatred,
even in lust,
especially in love.
Use me once, twice.
It doesn't matter.
But I will not distress
after you have torn me to pieces.
because i'll know in my lilac scented
paper-thin heart,
you poured out yours on me.
