Its the 15th

I didn't know how to cope

So I'm running this red marker straight across

I frantically look for more 

Now 4 lines exist

Blue, purple, orange

I feel my anxiety rising up

No not anxiety

Anger

Thoughts

“Why couldn't you be strong”

“Why did you do that”

The pounding of blood Fills my ears

I'm now scrambling for something to beat into

I'm now burying my fists into the pillow

I bite harder and harder into my lip

The metallic taste of blood fills my mouth

As I slowly start to see red

And I don't know how to cope

Its the 15th
