Petal Carve
It's as if you cracked my skull open, peaked inside while I was sleeping
And I'm thinking, “what business do you have?â€
And I wish I could unsee your kindness, every upward turn of your mouth, but I cannot
So, I'll bury it in sound, in grace, in erasing myself
I would live in the deepest cave and draw upon the walls
Ignore the sticks and stones to ignite some kind of fired
And God, will they love me if I am honest?
I would starve until every bone would show just to feel a little lighter and still avoid the truth-
You carved your name in me and I wish I never knew you
