Suffering
May 29, 2014
In the shadows,
Where she stays.
Hidden away,
Not showing her face.
going unnoticed.
Her body thin.
Her face so pale.
Razorblades,
Filling her drawers.
Thin slits of red,
Covering her arms.
Mirrors covered,
with ragged sheets.
Her bones fragile,
eyes pitch black.
Clothing baggy.
Hiding in the dark.
Fake Smiles,
Flooding tears.
Bones showing,
Still she sees fat.
Can’t sleep,
Won’t eat.
Craving perfection,
Or waiting on death?
