her mind was like an empty book.

she wrote and wrote and wrote
but it only occupied too much of her thoughts

so she erased them
but it only left marks

so she rewrote them
but it only looked as damaged as it was

so she tore the pages
and left her cuts,
in her fingers,
her palms
and her heart

having to know she had to keep
to herself what she wanted to say

so she left it
hanging plain
like an empty book
that it had always been
