Shatterproof
"I wish I was"
S c a t t e r e d
charred
ashes
these
wounds
are my own
Splatterproof
"If only I was"
D r i p
tainted
blood
self-inflicted
torment
Blameless
"I wish I was"
light
the fire
of
my selfish desires
acts of deception
sear my heart
the reminder
remains
*
Thanks for reading!
Author's Notes: Now reverse. Name is inspired of Bulletproof I wish I was by Radiohead from The Bends.
