E n t a n g l e d
wrapped up in a bow
a pleasant little present
unwrap me
revel in my layers
piece by broken piece
pull me apart
study my wretched scars
hide them? I cannot
for I am bound
E n s n a r e d
my afflictions are my bonds
binding me to my anxieties
silken strands of my depression
interlocking my battered limbs
and still, I smile
dressing up in pretty ribbons
a surface of feigned perfection
a pleasant little present
wrapped up in a bow
©️Unapologetically Me
Unapologetic
