Only Skin Deep
5’10”, brown hair, blue eyes,
Do I meet your requirements?
Cut
Me open on the cold, hard ground.
Marked for death since birth.
Bleed
Me out on the c r a c k e d tile floor.
Put me on your twisted idea of a display.
Abuse
Me to your broken hearts content.
You draw me in with your charm.
Suffocate
Me, your hands around my throat.
You split me open, I’m yours to bear.
And
I shall forever be in your memory.
Your favorite bleeding and screaming victim.
Love
The way you slice me tenderly.
So perfect in what you do.
Me,
Myself and I, all alone now.
Did I provide enough entertainment?
