‘’my same
my reflection
my similar
tied together
in the womb even though i
came many years after
holding hands as
we cross the road
to steal candy
from the gas station
giggling at night
and trying to stay quiet
as we tickle eachother
with our tiny feet
our shoulders
our eyelashes
our voices
once so similar
once my reflection
and once the same
you’re older now
and we have grown apart
but the ties that lie
underground connect us
and keep us family
even if we’re continents away.’’

‘’i’m lying on my bed
with my phone settled
next to me; halfway
covered by my blanket
i hear the ping that just won’t stop
i see the messages full of excitement
but i can’t bring myself to
feel what you feel
to be as excited as you are
to be alike
‘’what r u up to 2day??’’
‘’wanna hangout??’’
‘’we should get froyo :)’’
‘’i miss u!!!!’’
i sigh
i pause
i shut my eyes
and i turn away
because we are not longer akin
no longer bonded
no longer similar
no longer same.’’

“i bite you
and my teeth
sink deep
i silently hope that
my violence keeps
you away
but you don’t stop
to pick my canines
out of your flesh
you just pet my head
and tell me that
you’re not mad
so i bite again
because maybe then
you’ll see that i don’t
bite to protect myself
i do it to protect you.”

“you tap my keys
and create a beautiful
melody as your foot
presses gently
over mine; it makes
me blush
you fix my strings
when i am a little
out of tune; you’re
never annoyed to
help me out
you gloss my wooden
casing with a smooth
finish to display all
of my beauty
but you grow bored
of me after a while
and i am left to dust
in an old storage closet
with my strings thinning
and my gloss peeling
i barely remember
the last song i sang
to you
because i never
expected you to
simply
just
leave.”

‘’you sit in the shower
and bathe in the glory
you’ve always had
and will never lose
you lay on my bed
in the middle of the
night and lock eyes
with me until i give in
you stand behind me
on the bus with your
hands intertwined with mine
shadowing my movements,
collecting every emotion
i’ve ever spent on you,
tasting my skin when you
know i’ve finally given up
you’ve always been there
like a spider that’s already
been crushed but just won’t die
i hear you whisper in my ear
words that make my heart sink
‘’you keep coming back
and you always will.
pathetic.’’

‘’a man following you
through an empty alley
way deep into the night;
the only light is from the
flash of his phone
a whisper about how bad
you are at *** spreading
through everyone’s ears
even though you’re still a ******
a hand up your skirt
on the bus from the stranger
behind you; you just wanna
go to your classes
a ****
a *****
a ****
yet the moment you strike
the second you bite
the instant you growl
the exact moment you
show them the wolf inside you
is the moment you’re
banished from society
for
being
too
cruel.’’

“my hands
my eyes
my ears
every motion that i use
to pleasure my body
are motions that i always
deeply regret
the hands that circle
my bud until i am writhing
in an unfathomable
amount of pain
the eyes that are glued
to the screen full of
people paid too little in
positions i can’t even
imagine myself being in
and the ears that listen
for every creek in the
floorboard as i bury
myself in the layers of self
hatred disguised as an ******
i’m fed fantasies that would
disappoint every single
human in my devastatingly
horrific life
i’d sleep in your bed
but my mind would only
ever replay the videos
i’ve watched over and
over and over
so i'm sorry
but it would **** me to
imagine it all over again."

‘’these thoughts constantly
infect my ****** mind
like a plague that infiltrates
the body and forces it to
***** its innards
or possibly a virus that
leaves your face mangled
with rashes and blisters
the thoughts are violent,
cruel, and unforgiving in the eyes
of our lord and savior
i do not wish to picture
innocent souls in such ravaged
positions nor do i wish to
imagine what their insides
smell like
i want to curl up on my bed
and hide beneath the covers
until i am no longer a monster
are these things that
i truly believe? are they
meant to expose my
true nature?
i’m disgusting.’’

‘’a suffocating tightness wraps around
my body as i stand inside a
sea of people
i **** in a deep breath and
keep it there to surpress the
fatness that i was born with
you call my name
you give me a smile
you love me so deeply
yet the attention i’m given
will never exceed the
amount of guilt i feel
staring down at the scale
165.4
165.5
166.3
the number goes up
as the skin on my arms
thins from the scars i
cut into myself because
i think i deserve it
i stare at myself in the
mirror; cringing at every
roll on my stomach,
every pimple on my nose,
the gross stretch marks that
adorn my hips . . .
i’m so sick of this body
i’m tired
i’m so unsatisfied.’’

‘’my legs have turned to mush
my brain feels like slop
and my eyes have melted
i clock out of my shift
i go home
i shower
i study for my test tomorrow
i go to bed
i wake up
i brush my teeth
i put on clothes
i go to school
i clock in for my shift
i clock out of my shift
i go home . . .
this tiring cycle is endless
and the adults in my life
expect nothing less of me
you must get a good grade and study
but you must also get 8 hours of sleep
you must take care of yourself
but you must work to keep your apartment
a good grade is a good day,
anything less counts you as
a failure and as a mistake
do not fail
but do not exceed.’’
