❝the scars that screamed of revolutions inside her head and the shards that made up her heart were things that no one saw.❞

suffering from a terrifying eating disorder and from a shattered home, quinn's greatest tormentor is imperfection. her world enveloped in darkness and after the loss of her only friend, she finds herself falling in an abyss of agony...alone.

she's the minuscule, unstable sailboat while the world is the mighty ocean, thrusting her about in the rough waters, trying its best to engulf her into its unfathomable depths to make her disappear. 

quinn yearns to have the "perfect" image just to be finally labeled as "beautiful". the thing is...she can't. 

she soon finds her sanity slipping, plunging into lunacy. how long will it take till she's completely submerged in the ocean? will she ever see the rays of light?

a splintered heart.
tainted emotions.
darkened words of blood-smeared, unsent letters, written by a girl whose heart had been ripped apart under her damaged skin.
a thousand more tears and screams.

Most of this is sad, any TW will be at the start of them I'm a 17 y/o (Started this when I was 15) just wanting to share some of my poetry with people other than my friends :] (Also feel free to comment any tips and how I could improve on my writing!)
