After the Break

October 27, 2017

I used to be intolerant to pain

but now

I’m aware

of all the aches in my body

so bare with me

for that I may seem weak

but that’s only the outside

and you must

peer into the opening I give you

and indulge.

From this, I may seem easy

but I just want someone

loyal

genuine

trusting

to lie next to

and talk to me.
