My skin is the sky
and I’m just drawing constellations

I know the truth buried under the lies
I know the face hiding behind the mask
I know the pain locked behind a smile
I know the laugh sealing in the hurt
I know the phrases covering the truth
It was the cat
I fell into a thorn bush
It's just a scratch
I know the pain you've endured
Find your voice and speak the truth
It wont go away if you don't try
They wont stop laughing on their own
The pain wont just disappear
The tears wont suddenly stop flowing
Find your voice and speak up
You're strong and beautiful
Please stay awhile dear

Watch him twist, watch him squirm,
Watch him catch the early worm,
See him writhe, see him turn,
He’ll take your soul,
then watch it burn.

It's good to see that
nothing has changed.
If only I could talk to you
without feeling like
it could be a life or death
decision.

More I think, more I sink
More I sink, more I begin
to live in my own dream
I desired
So more and more I think
I absolutely sink.

little fragile creature
broken and empty
your crying again
you're so **** silly
little skinny girl
why don't you eat?
you're starving again
food is what you need
little baby me
why are you here
you should have been dead
no one would waste a tear

Thoughts form in my head
Perfected
Neat
Unscathed
Until . . .
My mouth opens
My tongue flip-flops
Words reform
Tilting inside each other
Melting
Into a demented figure
Then a volcano erupts
From my inner
I scream
I cry
I shout
But the pen touches my fingertips
Quieting the beast in me
“Bleed me”
It whispers
I did
The pen bled my pain
It bled my deepest thoughts
Seemingly only ink cures
My dyslexia

Every time
you unleash your monster
I do as well.

There was a time
I sat alone
empty heart
broken soul
I spoke not
for words escaped me
my fingers trembled
bones all aching
I thought it better
for no one to know
I wanted to leave
but had no where to go
