To be seen from within

By riCOCKulous

If only to be dead
Buried so far below
Away from the raping eyes
And not seen for my skin
To be seen from within

Just a thought
Thought of what
What if
If I
I was
Was invisible
Invisible to you
You and the rest
Rest of the world
World of the blind
Blind to my skin
Skin that is hidden
Hidden below
Below 6 feet under
Under and dead
Dead and buried
Buried from the world
World left so cold
Cold and unseen
Unseen and just

If only to be dead
Buried so far below
Away from the raping eyes
And not seen for my skin
To be seen from within
