Show me your bones.

Updated: Aug 23, 2022

Inspiration: watching a girl with an arrogant attitude.

Show me your bones.

Remove your clothes.

Burn your make-up.

Cut out your breasts.

Peal your scalp.

Slice your tongue.

Pierce your eyes.

Break your teeth.

Rip your lashes.

Crush your nose.

Shred your lips.

Bleed to death.

Show me that,

which we all share.

The part of you,

akin to us all.

Just as lifeless,

As your attributes.

Let me fall in love,

With your bones.
