switch it

I’ll turn myself inside and out

my flash, my bones

I’ll filter the blood

and exchange my love

for something that I can hold

I’ll look in my veins

I’ll push out the nerves

mix my senses and lose my voice

I’ll brush off the sweat

and dip in my skin

fingertips touching the swollen cells

I’ll turn myself inside and out

I’ll rage a storm

turning my flawed core_ into a song

a play pretend_ that I am able

that I am sane

so when you will look at me

at my upsidedown meaning

at my unbroken words

at my fake flesh

you’ll think there’s nothing wrong

that this is how I am
