high fives
for low lives

I have tried it all
To get the monsters in my soul
Smoking them out
Drowning them in alcohol
Poisoning them with pills
Putting them to sleep with green happiness
Bleeding them out
And yet every night they whisper
I am here
I will always be here
As long as you are here

Do you ever think
About how you dislike someone
You thought you loved
How at the time you thought they were educated, cute, and funny
But now you realize they are a closeminded manipulative pretentious human
That loathes themselves and takes it out on the world
Its strange
And its sad

Bridge to Terabithia
In the 3rd grade

Where the Red Fern Grows
In the 6th grade

Eating raw chicken at the ******* barrel
And getting sick afterwards

Seeing my grandpa naked
When I was very little

My dad’s ****** and alcohol addiction
All through my life

And the way he forced me
The way my voice was not heard
It didn’t matter
To them
To anyone
Then

Or now.

Teach your daughters
To impress
To be intimidating in a pretty dress
