and when they come...
those times when you
will curse the mirror
pound Frustration
till it bleeds
it's then, i'll hold you

and when they come...
the stares from strangers
turning, wincing
as though wounded
by your scars
it’s then, i’ll touch you

and when it comes...
the acid water
rotting wooden
platitudes
till dams release
each burning wave
of pride

it's then, i'll show you
a reflection
force your gaze
to meet my eyes

how beautiful...

very cool.

It's such a clever innocence with which you show myself to me
