You Have Enough Lies to be A Human, You Have Enough Lines To Be A Book.

My veins grow bold with sun shined blue, with hints of ivory;
The scars are left from something far from simple luxury.

Reliving failures lure me in, with fingertips so gentle;
The things I fear, the things I love, are never sentimental.

The pages fill, the ashes fall, and I'm left here again;
That body there, so sane, so rare, was meant to break and bend.

And so it begins, these things you call "curses";
Beat the warmth of your searing touch and lightly coat these verses.
