stream of consciousness.

i scrape away at you
until you are naked
the insides robbed
of their skin
filter-less. without concealer.

the shavings
that my fingernails
have collected
lay in a heap.
waiting for the fire.

longing to burn away
from this world of you and i

longing to belong...
anywhere else.

she has been filed away
in a rolodex of neverminds
and doesn't matter anymores

pushed into the past too quickly
and written about too late.
