Trying to forget
May 15, 2014
Drown myself in vodka
to try and forget.
To try and melt myself away.
Fill my lungs with cancer
to suffocate my demons
and make them crippled.
Ignore the hunger..
To achieve perfection.
To be lovely.
Silence myself
with cuts and bruises
burns and a journal.
Because what else could i do?
Speak?
Be drowned in pills?
Let them think i'm crazy?

2 Corinthians 12:9
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. ” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.
