Less than a foot away
Sits the box of things
I so carefully hid from myselfA clean blade lies in there
An alcohol wipe
A wash clothMarkers in case
I change my mind, but I'm
Not leaning
Towards the healthy routeTips and tricks
Have not cured this.
I'm running a little low
On willpowerI have colored my skin
Memorized the lyrics to songs
Found 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 things
Breathed in and out for 4
Tried sitting really, really stillI cant look away
Tragedy calls my name
It shines in the lamp's light
My stomach turns and twists
Puke rises in my throatI was clean for 2 years.
