In the midst
of the storm
my breath
suddenly
takes a spin
and turns me
inside out

The membrane
of my skin
dissolves
somehow
Exposing
what it
held together

For the world
to see

The wounds
so well kept
and hidden
now naked
and out of form
to witness

Here is
all of me
fully undressed
vulnerable
fluid and
ready to merge
into this
strange reality
