egg in the shell

I cracked myself open

For you to see me vulnerable. 

For you to peak inside the core.

I am fully unarmed, weak and insecure.

You wouldn't look, you wouldn't pity.

Instead, you pour water to simmer

Toss me in, 

Hundrid degrees, boiling hot.

Leaving me with wound that burns.

Lifted me up and sprinkle me with salt

Stings so bad.
