♥ row, row, away with the flow

Fire in her eyes,
And blood in her hands.
She looked at me in stark horror,
And I let myself be caught in the terror.
I cursed, screamed and cried out loud,
Wondering what did I find in the crowd.

My teenage self was sitting in the corner,
While I was busy burning my skin in the heater.
I vexed at myself in the pitch black madness,
And let the vicious void consume me in its darkness.
For once, I let myself breathe in that destruction,
And wondered how was it to burn in its cadence?

I hoped for it to scathe every inch of my skin,
Cause I certainly didn't deserve any kin.
I felt like I was a very terrible person,
Until I met my teenage girl in prison.
I asked her what she did,
And I didn't even care to listen a bit.

I was too busy breaking the vases,
I couldn't watch even a bit of the scratches.
I wondered how she allowed people to walk all over,
When they didn't leave behind as much as a flower?
The rage's gone, the tides are slow,
Row, row, away with the flow.
