Treating her criticism like law,
fixing every 'flaw'.

Now all I can remember is the scars I've amassed.

O man of mirror

how the heart
the heart is lonely

Mind trembling at the thought of life,
why live if one's to live in strife?

her words slitting skin
her careful eye drawing blood.

is but a frame,
one that leads to places you cannot be
hanging them above you--
but just to see.
the window is my enemy.
