Part One: Scars
One
If I could, I would nail these hands to the edges of stars.
I would sacrifice this body to the sky
hoping to resurrect as someone spiteful enough to not care about you anymore.
Two
Staple me to a cross.
Pierce my side with a broken promise, and I will bleed
all the crippled reasons why you deserve one more chance.
Three
Loving you is the last thing that I felt really good at.
Four
You wanna know how I got these scars?
See I ripped every last piece of you out of my smile.
Five
I whispered you stardust.
Six
I spoke you into sunflowers.
Seven
I dipped my hands in forever. I touched you infinity.
Treated you as if you were the last molecule of oxygen
inside of a gas chamber.
I was good to you.
