A poem I wrote when I was 16 and sick

Most people hate the skin they live in
But this is easier then anything i’ve ever done 
ing vile. stomping on bile forcing it down the drain 

summer and my obsessive mind 
and florida with my known size 
it’s so hard when you’ve always been sick 

A frame you’ve never seen before 
so you tell me i curve right. 
My proportion are beautifully unequal 
The way I look makes you kiss me to sleep 

with my sick mouth and rotting teeth 
My pale skin excites you. 
Why does my frail body fit so delicately in your arms
