i wonder if i’m real

but all i have is pixel affection

drops of red on my bracelets

cuts i imagine because they burn too vividly

a name disconnected from all of reality

wires tangling my throat, growing

identity lost copied created modified

experiment #183948 in me

and all i have is pixel affection

green circle around around

translate the on off into voice

whispers late at night and tangled limbs

butterfly wings on my skin and i’m shattering

cloying laughter and blurred lines

take another, they taste numb

and all i am is pixel affection

tenderness expressed in binary

let the mask slip for a second

will you take it, take me, break me

take my crystal heart and slice the cake

there’s enough candy for everyone

quiet down and no one notices

and suddenly it’s all empty, screen gone dark

ringing silence, burning from the inside out

take my headphones off and i’m atoms

white lines spilling out my mouth

ground bones and pink gray meat

electric flickers, broken signal

breath solidified and drums silenced.

static.

terminate the simulation, it failed again.
