walk me home, problem child
walk me home

She painted flowers
as snakes
were eaten
an
never read Freud.

beautiful blues those saxophone hues
ruined by electronic cigarettes

Thief ridden hearts
swallow
these shadows whole..
for i absorb
there guilt
&
raise it as
one of my
own.

self harm is not beautiful.
it is not wonderful to be saved
it makes you feel weak
and it makes you feel sick.

carving his name into your skin
is not poetry
and is not romance

mental illness is not glamourous
or fascinating
or graceful

mental illness is sickness
anger, disgust

stop romanticizing something
that destroys life itself
