naked, with you, i was

alive and brave;

could eat and sweat

and you made me feel like

nothing could exist

without my blood and my tears.

naked, i was calm and safe

a statue in your lens,

your paintbrush,

your drawing hand.

naked, i became a place

for you to put yourself

so we could prove we fit together.

naked, i am now, without you.

cold and unshaved,

borrowed and broken.

i lie a sorry girl on

a bed that is unbareably vacant

of your smell and cum.

i lie exhausted and melting,

squeezing on tight to nothing

and fearing what lying like this

will do to me.

my body is all i know.
