Never Enough
#1
I know it's not much, but I had to get something down so I don't slip into creative isolation.

Never Enough

My formerly untouched skin, 
porcelain with youth, innocence
is pierced and dragged
by the blade of reality.
The words are carved into me:
never enough.
Before they were on my physical body
they were in my mind
seeds planted by you, my own father
so focused on his vain reflection
and who he wishes I was
that he never sees my bleeding.

Before they were on my physical body
they were in my mind
placed by you, my own father
so focused on his vain reflection
and ideas of who he wishes I was
that he never sees my bleeding.
