Defenseless

When the hot droplets of sea hit the rough Fabric on your fitted t shirt
When the bones and nerves that write the Stories in this book grip so tight
They turn white
When
My brain finally lets the walls that
Hold in poison 
Depriving the dopamine 
The little amount that rarely shines

I am vulnerable 
And defenseless
