Split my flesh. Whip me with barbed leather. Leave welts, leave long slits in my skin. Ravage my body. Claws and teeth. Rake your anger along my spine and claim me by the moon. I am the rock upon which the waves crash tirelessly. I am the depth of the expansive ocean you have yet to explore. I am more than this meat carcass. I live, I breath, I love, I hate. Let the lightening mark my body. Electric blue chases the blood through my veins. It only strengthens me. Torture me the only way you know how. The way a child tortures an ant. I am love and hope and light. I am also anger, destruction, devastatingly violent and dark. Scars upon scars, bruises and wounds. Blood dripping, teeth snarling, a smile of come get me. Do your worst and your best. It will never be enough. You will never be my enough. Burn me to cinders, break me down to the tiniest molecules. I still bleed silver and gold. I've been through Hell. I walk head held high through purgatory. The Gods light my way and just when you think I'm beaten, worn and exhausted. Vulnerable and dependent. This Clever girl, child of the moon and sun. A spirit you could never fully comprehend or appreciate. Strength returns anew, I have power over you. I am Me. So split my flesh with barbed leather. Lay my skin and body open, tear my secrets and skeletons from me and exploit my deepest fears. You'll never take all of me.
