Time Ticks Slowly
January 26, 2018
As I lie on my bed
Dreaming of what could be
I hold in my hand
The very thing
That could end it all
Three small, but powerful
Blades
"Just do it"
"End it already"
Blue dripped from my eyes
The voices screamed
Louder and louder
Hour after hour
Minute after minute
Second after second
And just like that
Red fell from my wrists

I was severely bullied my freshman to sophomore year. Eventually, the pain became too overwhelming and all I could hear inside my head was what those girls said. I felt as though I deserved it. I hope that people will see that what you are feeling is just temporary and time continues on. Life continues on.
