I am hiding under bones
hiding behind my delicate tones
ribs are my favorite shelter
I took my mind and put it next to
a heart that doesn't quite know what it should do
bum bum bum
it speaks to
my arms won't move and lids won't lift
only my collar bones know how to say hello
when I see that a lot of my hair actually fell off
but it's okay
because I am not there under scalp
I am secret under hips and wrist bone
smiling behind my spine to hide the fact
I am tired and alone
and skinny skinny skinny
should be worth it
but it seems when I get there
my lips will be too purple and hung
to stop biting on my tongue
