Screen Doors On Brick Walls; I Build Both

Broken bones.
They don't bend the way we'd like them to.
Can I bend you?
Not to your breaking point,
But almost.
I don't know that part of you.
Not yet, but I'd like to
Explore it.
Just a taste.
Just so I could see what shakes you.
I would never shake you,
But I want to see you shaken.
I don't completely understand it.
I don't completely understand you.

Like sleep.
I like to sleep.
It's neccesary,
But what do you do when you sleep?
Why can't you stay still?
I woke up and found you contorted,
I woke up and found you
Bent.
But I never saw how you got there.
I want the process.
The whole process
Why you are you.
I want to know what bends you.
You'll just have to trust me.
I might bend you,
I will never break you.
Promise.
