Dec 2016
She shook so hard
Her bones broke
Scars on her arms
Words in her head
She says that she's fine
Wishes she were dead

Oh but baby, I'm better
She cries with her chest
Tears mixed with snot
They say she's the best

Well, if I have such a big heart
Why too often do I fall apart
So smart, clever, witty & kind
Crack open a cage, what do you find
I'm rotting, ******* blood and grime
The smell darling, it wrecks my mind

I dream of dying
The solace and peace
Of laying this shell down
Corpse empty, soul being free

I'm not better
I've just learned
Better methods of
Ignoring the past
