Ink bleeds
like the scrapes on my knees
but ink has an importance
unlike the fall I just had.

It's almost sad
how I'm not a child
but I can't stop acting like one
even though I try really, really hard
to stop crying over insignificant things.

Everything seems to come out wrong to me
I get offended by everything
I have a reason sometimes
but I'm mostly just a bitch
I think.

I reckon the ink has dried by now
but for some reason my knees are still bleeding
I might need stitches
or meds,
because they're no longer bleeding
or hurt
and are now covered in ink
that isn't actually there.
