sometimes time heals things that aren't necessarily broken



-k.l.

tears rolled down her face
and
her chin rested on the porcelain toilet bowl
and
the white paper towel slowly stained red with her blood



-k.l.

no matter what anyone else says or does
the world will always make you feel
small
and insignificant
and worthless



-k.l.

her skin is smooth, the scars are gone
but little do you know
she acts like everything's okay
yet she feels like she's alone

did you check her stomach?
and did you see her hips?
there's pain inside her eyes
and a fake smile on her lips



-k.l.

i painted my nails so i would feel pretty
but it didn't really work
what a shame, such a pity



-k.l.

i have bruises where you bit me
and scars from where i cut
your words were so deceiving
but now i'm out of luck



-k.l.
