Don’t get too close. I might
hurt you.
It’s not purposeful. Trust
me.
I don’t want to cause you
pain.
It’s just that I’m a little
broken in all the wrong places.
You know, against the grain. I’m
ragged— they haven’t been neat tears.
More than scars—they’re
physical demarcations. Deformations.
And if you get too close my
serrated edges. They will cut you.
In all the wrong places. They
will more than leave scars.
You’ll be deformed. Like me.
I don’t want that for you.
Don’t get too close. I might
hurt you.
{it’s ok. I can heal you}
Oooh, this is good!
