To read me is to understand me
Filtered through the layers of my mind
Distilled by the ink of my pen
Words on paper become the essence of who I am
Read them and you will read me


---


I put raw words on paper that you will never read
because they have the colour of my blood
and I'm afraid you would be
appalled by my bare soul


---


Will you be able to love me
Having seen my soul laid bare
Or will my broken edges cut you
Beyond repair
