Poem: I'm sick of feeling like i need you
my self hurt my pain.
feeling like i need you
hating, taking, breaking, me apart.

It's as though I thought I could make it better
with every crimson line I trace across my body.

No more crimson lines
in your silver shiny exterior.
Just pillowy pink tallies,
one mark for each time i fell apart....
