For you

For you

I dispel the pain you give
and discard it in the trash

I take the sensitivity of touch from my skin off
and cover it evenly over your numbed expectations

I unhook my voice from the vibrations
in my vocal folds
and fashion a knife from it
I disembowel the trepidations
in my gut feeling of you

I spill my guts out
for you
look how pretty my secrets
and confessions look
dissolving in the truth
like rust in acids

I strip down to the bare bone
set my soul to flames
let it sooth you as is dissipates in the air
like an incense

For you
I die
so you may live
