Only In Nightmares

Chapter 1

I do not promote self-harm. And most definitely I do not put it in the positive light. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was once stated by the Ancient Greeks that if you stare at your own reflection, in the water, long enough you will imagine the impossible world of monsters, demons, and the paranormal. But a wise man once said nothing is impossible in the name of God. But when the evil overpowers God who's there to protect you? Human socialists have studied what happens when people look into the mirror for a significant amount of time. They came to the conclusion that the people who were seeing such things were just hallucinating. My conclusion is the people who don't see such terrible things posses the demons in their physical body.

My name is Elizabeth. Elizabeth Sykes to be precise. The day I left the womb was a day I wish never existed. Honestly I have been happy before so I know it is possible to be happy again.  But this time around I know about the pain in the world.  Everything isn't all barbies and sleepovers.  It's death, corruption, and devastation.  But that's part of growing up.. excepting reality and dealing with it.  

In high school I didnt't exactly win any titles such as Prom Queen or Best Smile, but I knew in my heart I won something more special than an "award" anyone could ever give me.  I found my place in the world. I never said it was a place I wanted to be, but I had found a place.  I had some people that would back me up, such as my best friend Hayley.  She always left when things got rough so she wasn't exactly the best friend, but she was the best I could get.  

My parents had always been gone when I was growing up so I depended a lot on my amazing brother, Oli Sykes.  He had always made things better for me.  We didn't fight music, surprisingly, because he was all I had and I was all he had.  We knew from a pretty young age that we could never separate.  He was my everything; my strength to never give up.  Especially when I was diagnosed with sever depression and anorexia nervosa.

But still..

My enemy is the scale.

My Bestfriend is a blade.
