Misplaced
I walk in time with the bass
Because it makes me feel real
It's my first time hearing my feet hit the floor
Break from breath and sweat and skin
Fire melts my face
I wish it would melt me to my bones
Calcium rupture milky froth spill
Slow beats couldn’t stop me then
It's my porcelain body
my flat pixilated soul
mothers board
braided in disparate wires
I renounce my former voice
my oil, my keratin, my salt
It's cleaner here
In my glossy sphere with my glossy grin In my fractured glossy lense
Stepping in time with the bass
Swaying to words from a mouth I'll never know
I love you
because you’ll never be mine
