Suicide note
I could never find the words for a suicide note
My insanity is not explainable in
Any number of syllables and
I thought it would be better to
leave questions unanswered than
Answer imperfectly, and
risk leaving with a lie though
It's something I'm
good at
Blaming scars on the
Dog like
He's the one who
Carved 'hate' into my
Stomach
I couldn't find the words for my
Suicide note because how do you
Explain dropping a mug in the bathtub to see just
How deep glass
Cuts
glass is sharper than you
think
I've got the scar for
insurance reasons
though it didn't hurt
really
it's the dull things
that ache the
longest
you are built with
the ability to
break yourself
your nails
shaped to give
friction burns
to satisfy every inch of
self loathing
it stings more
later the
adrenaline isn't
enough to make you
feel real for long.
