have you ever attempted
to eat away at your skin
to bite and chew at your lips
reveal the disgusting red within
its an ugly habit
to pluck hair from the eyes
to try to deny it
is to live out your lies
you know its not important
but you say it anyway
you tell everyone you're hurting
they can never see past the decay
you start chewing of your nails
your fingers bleed and tear
forgetting your routines and things
you've been made unaware
you might feel a little better
if you rip off a little more
your bruises turning rainbow colors
disgusting little *****
you've ripped out half your lashes
they seem to disappear
on your legs there are gashes
your skin is so easy to tear
you write poems to "cope"
with pain you don't deserve to say you feel
you shouldn't be able to feel anything
if our emotions aren't real
silly stupid rabbit
your tastes are a bit too much
you're taking from yourself again
slowly turning back to dust

self mutilation through auto-cannibalism
