I Want You Back
I want you back.
I see the writing on your arm
I want you back
I see the writing on your wall
I want you back.
I see the scars
I want you back
“Save me”
I want you back
Soft smooth skin...
Whiteness.
I want you back
Smoothness
I want you back
Tasteless
I want you back
Scaredness
I want you back
Sacredness.
Scarred writing, scared writing, sacred sanctity
saving your soft skin which scares me into a tasteless whiteness!
Blank!
I want you back.
Come home
