a play

She knows my weaknesses

she just knows the spots

I spent years gently hiding behind

layers of lies and dead skin

she takes everything

I’ve worked for in a minute

with a word with a line

with a finger, undermined

with a smile on her face

she tells you to brace yourself

for what is coming is greater

what is coming is more

it's not a spot anymore

this time it's you i'm shaking

with no intention of breaking

as long as it doesn’t show

i will continue to burrow

This poem has my mind awash with ideas and thoughts as I try to piece it all together. A fabulous play with words to entrance the reader. This is really very good.
Thank you
