sab eggshells
can be sanded back

carefully, oh so carefully
back to paper thin
and beyond

i can see the light
through these mottled shells
and all she saw was
the blood as she kept scraping back
scraping back
scraping back to discover
what she was convinced was there.

scraping the flesh
back
and back
and back
back to bone
back to marrow
scraping back and back and back
breaking through to the bone hollow
with tears in her eyes
shes scraping back and back and back
to find what shes convinced
is there.

back
and back
and back

searching franticaly
the smaller and smaller pieces
for what shes convinced
was there.


sitting on the floor
with the pieces
in her hands
scattered around her

pieces of what she tore apart
because she refused to believe
what was my Truth
