On my 14th birthday,
I stopped eating.
Food was gross looking,
I was gross looking.
My body was hungry, but my eyes weren’t.
Nothing ever felt better.
Nothing had ever felt better
Than knowing that I could finally say no
To myself.
I watched my body eat away at itself,
Watched my stomach get flatter
Day by day.
On my 14th birthday,
I stroked the scars on my arm,
Waiting for my mother to leave for work
So I could make sure the scars would stay there
For another week.
Listening for the garage door to open,
It seems as though all of my self-control has abandoned
My blades,
And taken to my image of a perfect body.
On my 14th birthday, I
you're a comedian, aren't you? by LiNgErInGdIsAsTeR, literature
Literature
you're a comedian, aren't you?
I find it funny that even though
It has been almost a year since I heard
Your voice, it’s still ringing
In my ears
Like a song overplayed on the radio.
I find it funny that even though
You are no longer someone I know,
I still know you better
Than anyone else ever will.
I find it funny that even though
It has been almost a year since I heard
Your voice, it is still stuck in my head,
Telling me all those almost-truths
That I fell for,
One after another.

Literature
and i can't seem to let it go
‘Once a cutter, always a cutter.’
I’m afraid I’ll get so far down in my sadness
I won’t be able to tell how obvious it is.
If I tell them I’m getting worse,
they’ll only shove a pair of pills as far down my throat
as they can get them.
They’ll show me how to do it,
and I’ll only take one pair too many,
one too many days in a row.
So I’ll keep to myself,
with a push and a smile
over lock-tight lips,
a wrist full of slits,
and an excuse to top it off,
hoping I don’t get one too many looks
at the space my sleeves don’t cover.
Do you remember when?
Do you remember when you drew a picture
of me?
I remember.
Do you remember that hot August day
when we laid on the grass together,
and you kissed me for the first time?
I do.
Do you remember my favorite Green Day shirt,
the one I was wearing the first day
I put my arm around you?
Because, I can’t seem to forget.
Do you remember those socks you left at my house?
I still wear them sometimes,
when I miss you.
And sometimes,
when I miss you,
I’ll write stupid things like this,
in hopes you’ll read it.
I know you won’t, though,
so I’ll keep writing until you do.

i run i run and hid
hiding from you
i can look at you
to much pain
i miss you
first kiss
first love
you left me
i screwed up
i run
i just want you back
I cry alone. I FEEL alone. I AM alone.
No one holds me high. No one holds me true.
A ghost; nothing more.
My tears are bitter bullshit. Bullets for the weak.
Take aim.
Fire!
