The smile on her face
Has been replaced with a frown
The cheeriness in her eyes
Has been replaced with emptiness
The laughter in her voice
Has been filled with sorrow
The blush on her cheeks
Has been stained with tears
The old scars on her skin
Have been renewed with a blade
The recovery she was so proud of
Has been taken away

Her eyes looked tired
And they were red and swollen
Like she had been crying for too long

Her clothes looked baggy
And her sleeves were long
Like she was trying to hide something

Her face showed sorrow
And there were purple bags under her eyes
Like she hasn't slept well in a while

Her mouth formed a frown
And her lips looked dry and chapped
Like she hasn't smiled in a long time

Her deep brown irises looked bright
And her clothes didn't hide her scars
And her beautiful smile had returned
Like none of those bad things had ever happened

You

You said you'd always be there for me
But where were you
When the clock strikes 3 am
And I'm sitting in bed
All alone
With tears stinging my eyes
Pills settling in my stomach
And a dull razor blade dancing across my skin
Wanting you beside me
To hold me and tell me
That everything is going to be okay
And that you love me
So please tell me
Where were you
When my thoughts were full of suicide
And the only thing I needed
Was you

I've been dreading this day for quite sometime
The day you finally push me away
Leave me behind to rot
You didn't deserve what you got
Possibly a sharp slap to the face
It's all my fault
And I couldn't be more sorry
Now I'm lost and wandering
Because I don't know what to do without you
You must have forgotten that you are my everything
That you're the reason I'm still alive
But now you're gone
And you're probably going to forget what we had
You just kicked me out of your life
Just like everyone will do eventually
Don't worry
I'll get used to it

Would
You
Still
Think
I'm
Beautiful
If
I
Sent
You
A
Picture
Of
Myself
Covered
In
Cuts
And
Scars?

As I down this bottle of pills
You're the only thing on my mind
As blood drips from my skin
You're the only thing I'm thinking of
As I skip another meal
You're embedded into my brain
I can never stop thinking of you
No matter how hard I try
My head always seems to find a way back to you
Just like my heart does
Every single time
