Break me if you please

I am like this because of you

By Helen AlarconPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

Why your face consumed by daisies freshly bloomed intrigues me I don't know.

I won't complain

I will stay compliant

To the small part of my heart that stops beating when you smile

I will let your burdens stand on my ribs as long as I have meaning to you.

But I don’t

I have never wished for someone to hurt me

But I would let your hands tear my skin if you stayed

But you won't.
