Burn

Location

let me try

let me try on a new life

i am alone here

surrounded by the dark.

let me have

a new face

new body

new skin 

new heart.

let me try

to escape 

to burn through the pages

and let me touch your heart

and shoot into the sky.

and fall back softly

into something more.

let me try 

to show you

to tell you

to make you

feel the way I do.

Bare.
