New Toys

by leftcoastlesbian

When you were little, you played with toys in this room. But now, you play with razors. Instead of drawing with crayons, you draw with razors. I always knew I'd grow out of my toys someday, but I never thought I'd replace them with razors. The razors dance across my skin, carving a story only I can understand. These razors are my toys now. Sitting in my childhood room, blood flowing from my wrists and tears pouring from my cheeks, I wonder why I had to grow up.
