Every girl wants a guy she can go to hair a mess, in sweats, eyes red from crying, and the first thing he says to her is "baby your beautiful" and actually means it.

issues in life
never resolved
stored away
and forgotten
but only temporarily
resolving in
anorexia and marks
upon her arm

these marks
were cuts
bleeding out
everything that
ever got in her way
or slowed her down
blocked her from her goal
and always looking at them
regretting ever doing so...

I love how you hurt yourself and regretted it. its tragic and casual at the same time. like "I just slashed my arm!...i wish i hadnt done that." and i love the last line. very smooth. 5 stars captain.
