flaws

sharp sound of your knuckles against the grain
rattle through me and resonate
echo echo echo
do i let you in?

you knew me when
before and after and in between
i cannot hide my scars here
when your eyes catch my flawed soul

this small moment
i am little and measly and hungry
where the shadows bend around the corners
you find me open and soft

bring me the calm i ache for
swimming the hours
counting the waves
this is me

i am insignificant and unfortunate
understand me in deep velvet
wipe away the stain with
large rough hands
