Skin

Skin,
covering my lonely,
covering my empty,
hiding my insecurities.
blocking out the hagging hore,
ageless.

No music to dance to,
days gone to never retrieve,
sunrise, and sun set,
play something I know,
something without words,
so I can make up the melody.
I am tone deaf,
melody to me is noise....
But its mine.

love has abandoned me,
left me chasing him.
craving him more than the air i breath.
He won't lay with me.
He won't caress me.
i am not what he wants.
pretense.

Rotten apples
worms crawl across the
surface, peeled back exposed skin.
No blood just the smell of decomposition.
The give of all of my fluids.
Bugs gorging in stages.
Fat and full
I will never come back.
will i be missed.
