Done

by christine-r

I am done with you, Those little orange bottles And your needles And your glittery powder Everywhere. I am done watching your bones grow And your skin sag And your soul peel While you sit encircled in Perfumes and Smoke. I am done waiting for your eyes to open Wide enough for you to see What hurt you managed to cause By not lifting a finger Or saying a word. And soon, So soon I didn’t see it As it flashed past my heart, Anger is welling and I am screaming Crying Flailing. My rage is pulsing Against glass walls And those walls Are cracking Against my skin. The jagged shards Leave jagged slices That leave jagged scars. And I won’t be done Until they heal again.
