I am up until dawn, with a gaping hole in my chest.
I know you can tell that I breathe fire.
I am a horrid, hairy creature.
I’m a grotesque nightmare, woman monster.
I’m an animal, a fucking animal!
I’m a volcano, spewing blood-red lava onto your clean furniture.
I am desperate and needy.
I am fiending for your love.
I cower at your feet. Love me, love me, please.
I am a leech ready to suck your blood.
I will take over your life.
I am tits and ass.
I am exotic eyes and eyebrows.
I might as well be Kim Kardashian.
I am a one-eyed, shaded thing at the bar.
A voluptuous head of hair, unveiled and exposed, for you.
I am dying for you to see me.
I’m terrified that you will see me.
I am destroyed by the very thought of you.
I can’t sleep, I can never sleep.
I have forgotten who I am.
I must be alone. I need to be alone.
I know how to be alone.
Not black or white, I’m somewhere in the middle hues.
I am not in the news but ain’t I a woman too?
How it feels to be free? I, too, wish I knew.
I’m a soft, motherly vessel.
I’m “such a good listener.”
I am an angry woman.
Loud and hostile.
I am bitter and depressed.
I am soooo irrational.
I know you hate me so I think that I hate you.
But I love you, oh I love you!
Please, please let me love you.
