1.
i'm soaked in blood from the waist down you tell me to put my gown on because it's easier to make a ghost out of me than witness the loss of pure fragility move your hands away from me please cradle the waste of a being try to stand up straight with the crushing weight of neglected humanity my gown's soaked in blood from the waist down
2.
you gave me a bouquet of peonies its stems crushed by your hands as brittle as the bones beneath my skin the petals thrust towards the damned as fickle and alone as i have been left in the darkness i gathered the remains to make a light as bright as the bloodstained blame you've entrusted with me evening is coming my fingers drape my nicest dress over my frail body then grip the lantern shaped by the mess you've granted me i make my way to you as i was asked to do my mortal cage no longer disguised you're shocked to see me i apologize
3.
when i sleep my head moves away from me i try to be still so it can find its way back to my body don't wake me don't move your hands from my neck or you will see the scar drawing me apart, detaching just let me sleep let me be weak just let me sleep
