i’m a qubit
whatever you want
to see
that’s
what i’ll be
i wish
i could be
a transistor
wish
i could be
one or the other
if that’s
what you need,
go love another.
how can you say
you love
Me
when i
don’t have
a self
to be loved?
you love
your own
reflection.
you
are narcissus,
i
am water.
i will play
this role for you
so convincingly.
i’ll be clay for you
shape Me
however.
oh,
what a privilege,
to be made
in your image!
how can you say
you love
Me
when i
am nothing?
the fuller this love makes you,
the emptier
i grow.
my veins are your spouts:
drink.
it isn’t self harm
if i can’t feel a thing
