I am a piece of paper
Clean
Untouched
You touch me
I wrinkle
The more you touch me
The more wrinkled more wrinkled I become
Until I am a ball in your hand
A wasted piece of trash
You apologize for hurting me
You unravel me until I am whole again
I am a piece of paper
Wrinkled
Used
A wasted piece of trash
You tried to salvage
I will never be as perfect as I once was
Before you touched me
