glitter

You crushed me
Changed my chemical 
Composition
Where I was made of stars
Now I am stardust 
Shining and 
Good for nothing 
Drifting because there is 
No gravity left 

To hold me down. 

what are we?

Are we the stars out 
Tonight?
Who stares
As our beauty lights 
The darkness around us?
Who gazes our direction
And desires
To be among us 
Far away
From the troubles 
Of the night? 
Are we the only stars out

Tonight? 

how about now

I just need to know 
That I’m not just
Trapped in your
Blind spot


Can you see me now? 

whoops am I bleeding again

Why, I said, 
Why can’t I stop thinking
About him 
I don’t even like him 
He bothers me 
You know
You smiled
And you said, because
You don’t pick 
At good skin, dear
You pick

At the scabs
