‘Oh to be loved by a poet’ How funny, Isn't it funny how I will turn your words into beauty no matter how ugly you are? Isn't it funny how instead of burning photos I burn myself and scratch the scabs to provide entertainment for you? Isn't it funny how I will bleed words and keep cutting myself just so you can read more? Isn’t it funny how I wont let myself heal but let it fester under my skin so i can empty my blood onto a page when I dip my pen? Isn’t it funny how as much as I would hate to admit it ,I need you so I have a reason to bleed? For the sake of poetry You would let me burn

if i see one more instagram post of someone who bullied me saying 'oh to be loved by a writer' or 'oh to be the muse of a poet' i am going to crash out
