She sits in the darkness

thinking

thinking about the past,

the future

she turns on the lamp and sits there

she picks up her blade and looks at it

She pulls up her sleeve and looks at her already scarrd wrist

she puts the blade to her wrist and pulls it across

shes useless...one cut

shes nothing...two cuts

shes pathetic...three cuts

but she doesn't stop at three

four more

five more

fourteen more

she should stop

but she doesn't

and she doesn't want to

but she needs to before shes lost for good

she does this all in the darkness of her room

her blades not even hidden from her family

and instead of talking to her family about it,

she talks to her friends

those four little lights keep most of the darkness at bay...

for now

These scars remind us that the past is real...Where stories live. Discover now
