Layer-less Epidermis

There's so much inside of you
but you're a child
and you're everyone's child but your own.

Then you can't believe your eyes
how you've failed as your own parent
and you don't recognise your own
moles
anymore

I'm really fucking soft,
how does anyone know where to start
when cutting cashmere

there are so many things that I want
to take to bed with me just to show them
how much they mean

and how harshly they touch me.
