girl on a bus

You are bad at taking care of yourself  

Free and reckless  

Skirting comfortably, accountability

The plausible deniability of youth

A grown up runaway

Untouched by any hand

Raw to feeling

Response exasperated by desperation

Teetering end to end

So much time away from center

Failed attempts glossed

Missed opportunity missed

Built to take it

An a*s until you see for yourself

An a*s for going it rough

An a*s for being proud

Beat your drum so hard that it wears out in the middle

Live on without time

Your days, a room of mirrors

Your rusting skin, marking the passage of years

You'll never know how beautiful you were
