Myself

his faucet drips
we are so different
i am so far from being like him
he says i don't look like other girls
i look at the floor comparing my theighs to Mary Jane's
you say i'm velvet and fragile and i keep my petals closed most of the 
time 
he says i multiply like flies against the pale shade of gray
why can't he understand that all i want is his eyes fixated on me
