For a moment
Climb out of that noose and come with me
Cast the razor blade away
And come
You'll see
That the eyes of youth can only imagine
A future in a week
Or two
But not a millennium
For with the gun in your teeth you cannot believe
That you are meant
For more
Than what you can already breathe
Every thud in your chest
Was made for life
A life
Well lived
Be a husband or a wife
Be an author
An artist
A creature of your own invention
A lover
A fighter
For you are needed for higher intentions
Than the tears you shed
Every night
And song
That reminds you of a time long gone
That will come again
If you just put down those meds
And come with me
Because like I said
The fumes from the car
Which you learnt to drive
For so much more you are meant to be alive

I'm inspired
Interrupt my reveries and I will slash you
With my keys
And stab my heel into the soft spot of your throat
Until you bleed enough for me
To write my ideas
In blood

I
Always
Wondered
Why
People
Consider
Me
A
Mystery
But
Then
I
Rea­lized
That
I
Don't
Even
Understand
Myself*

B.S.

I kind of wish my scars didn't fade
Like all my pain is destined to be invisible
On the inside
On the outside
Everyone who sees my thighs will never know
Because they don't look when they are visible
On the outside
On the inside
Is there no one who will take the time?
To see deeper than what isn't there?
On the inside
On the outside
Because if all my troubles are for naught
No one will ever know
No one will ever give a thought

I wish my scars didn't fade
