Too much?

Bright red

Sliding down my legs

Flowing from my thighs

As I remember how to cry


Sharp stings

Peppering my skin

Kissing down my arms

While I try to stay calm


I am basically worthless

Don't even know what a use is 

My parents are more than disappointed 

And my friends are embarrassed to be called that


If they saw my scars

Would they run or laugh?

Or tell me there's not enough?

What do I even deserve?


Did I go too far?

Should I stop now?

Was that too much?

Did I do too much?


So exhausted that I overslept

Somehow messed up making the bed

One hour in, I almost faint

Collapse on the floor, right back to sleep


The wall's made friends with my head

And so has the wooden floor now

I can feel the gentle oozing 

Not blood, just hemoid juices


Did I go too far?

Should I stop now?

Was that too much?

Did I do too much?
