layers.See, I look at you, and for a second, for a flash in time, I think you get me. I think you’ve unwrapped me from the layers that have kept me trapped all these years. I think you’ve destroyed the walls, one brick at a time. I feel like you can finally see me… finally see the real me. I feel lighter, I feel less covered. I feel naked. But it feels good. Come to think about it, it feels fucking good. For a second, that is. Then I notice that I was simply caught in between one of my many layers, caught, twisted and tangled. I’m trapped in between the layers that blur my eyes, blur my reality, make me see what’s not there, layers.

take me.I want you to take me
Like you’ve never taken anyone before,
Like you’ve never touched, felt, held anyone
Like you’ve never wanted, craved, anyone—
Anything.
Like you’ve never needed.
I want you to touch me
Like you’ve just discovered your hands,
To look at me
Like you’ve never had the power of sight.
I want you to love, love, love me
Like it’s keeping you alive,
Like I’m the organs, arteries, cells that keep you breathing.
But mostly—
I want you to have
Touched
Seen
Felt
Wanted
Craved
Loved
Plenty of times before.
But realize--
I am the one
that makes you believe it&# take me.
