One finger through to the back of my throat
To make me feel beautiful
I know you like me better when I'm skinny
Poison pours out and I'm cleansed once again
Make myself pretty for you.
Two fingers through the veins of my heart
To make me feel loved
I know you like me better in my happy moods
Exhaling the breath I've held on for too long
Open my eyes and I'll smile.
Three fingers through the depths of my passion
To make me feel alive
I know you like me better now I'm speechless
In my own little fantasy, it's only you and me
As close to reality as I'll go.

really like this line,
"In my own little fantasy, it's only you and me
As close to reality as I'll go."
the whole poem has a lovely depth to it.
