separate my soul
from my skin;
peel off the thin
protection
and feel me
bare
tear apart my memories;
turn my world so quickly
that colors blend
and sounds swirl
in a whirl-
wind of ecstacy
then lie me down
below--
let my naive nature
become polluted
by your acidic tongue
re-
ass-
em-
ble
me:
reassemble me
make me whole;
make me pure:
a life created
in your own image
make me the kind of lady
you'll want to love
again
