Tangles of the Mind

"puppy dog eyes"

"the saddest pair of eyes that you've ever seen", i've been told they belong to me.

do i believe them?

take a look, eye to eye, what do you think my darling?

am i supposed to be holding these drops of liquid grief?

or should they stain my cheeks once again; a fine needle etching my skin with the tears of a broken soul.

just cut me down, i don't deserve to rise once more, 

for i shall fall again in time.

i prefer to be shattered,

laying in a sprawl of pieces of a wrecked girl; it's comfortable.

it feels like home.
