She sits around 

her thoughts consuming her 

she blames herself 

and say she deserved everything


What does she mean by everything, you ask?

oh the usual

the physical, verbal, emotional, and sexual abuse


Sometimes when these thoughts overwhelm her

she draws 

but with a twist


The pencil is made of silver

the color is always red

the paper is always her skin

soon one sliver turns to ten


She no longer has to deal 

with the thoughts surrounding her

do you know why?

because ten slivers turns to twenty


Now she's all bloody

her floor is painted red

and because of the thoughts

she's killed herself, cold and dead
