+Skin turned callus\
+Shocking how very thin\
+Protecting what within\
+Safe from malice
+
+Callus turned scab\
+I say it's just a cloak\
+An eggs shell to my yolk\
+rough as stone slab
+
+Scab turned to scar\
+Am I changed, or left raw\
+What verdict should I draw\
+Thoughts so bizarre
+
+Scar turned putrid\
+Left so unattended\
+No longer defended\
+Efforts mooted
++++
+my blankets of comfort,\
+me of home and of world\
+made sense once before,\
+now all come unfurled
+
+at home, I was me,\
+proud, strong and hiding\
+awaiting being found,\
+scared, time was biding
+
+in the world untrue,\
+they don't all need to know\
+how much can I keep in,\
+at identity's plateau?
+
+all fades away one day,\
+who am I, in truth?\
+wrapped up in this parcel,\
+the bane of tender youth
