Relapsing
I wrote on myself last night
I wrote the words
Vile
Broken
*****
Alone
Ugly
Fat
Pale
Stupid
****
Inferior
Lonely
Sad
Awkward
Weird
Worthless
I wrote them with sharpie
And then I took my pocket knife
Freshly sharpened
And I cut the words into my skin
I cut lines across my thighs
And I watched all the ink sink in
"They say that ink poisoning can **** you
Well, welcome death
To my body. To my temple."
That's what I said
Later, I got in the shower
And I scrubbed off the writing
I scrubbed until my flesh was raw
There was even a little more bleeding
I marked DAY 3 off the calendar
And I went to bed
This morning I woke up
I plastered a smile on my face
And prepared for the day
To see the only one who makes me happy
And keeps me sane
At least when he is around
Soon I'll go home and do like usual
I'll pull out the sharpies
And again I'll sharpen my pocket knife
I'll make a long list of words
And I'll repeat the night before
But tonight I might not cry as much
Even though the pain will be 10 times worse
