I want to watch you but you won't hold still. I want to enjoy you without you noticing. I can't let your eyes meet mine. You're too bright, too harsh, my eyes won't adjust.
In front of you I'm naked. Bright blue heat piercing my eyes, my skin, my chest. It stings, I'm raw. Exposed. No shelter or shade. I'm burning. For you, because of you. I see myself, deformed and wasted. I hide my face, afraid of your reaction. Disgust, fear, pity? Even worse- compassion? Acceptance? Love? Look what you've done! I don't want you to see me this way. Barren. What can I give to you now? I have nothing left.
