i know that you think you know me
(and i kinda wish you did)
but my full range of human emotion
explodes beneath the surface
where my blood and convinced indifference
blend and fuse without you there
however blind to the interior
your mauve and mystic nature
breach my pride and pain
but my skin cements into shell
before my heart can jump out of its cell
because I am a glutton for ephemeral distractions
