You were purple and black
shaped like a ship
with my skin in your grasp
I was like paper thin and delicate
I couldn't withstand the prying nails
on your merciless hand and
I still hear the palms
singing in silhouette
as you opened up my shell,

I came here to be shown
my spine and my bones
and all the muffled moans
of my insides,
I came here to be crumpled

You were purple and black
shaped like a ship
with a dirge in your mouth,
reach and hold, you held my friend,
she was the sun, she had golden arms
and a feather soft and blue,
and when it was time for her to leave you
she was smiling,

I came to be torn and refolded
I came to be torn and refolded
I came to be torn and refolded
I came to be torn and refolded
