Favorite Quote:
“Should I kill myself, or have a cup of coffee?” <br /> ― Albert Camus


My eyes are opened when I’m without heart 

I know what and who you are 


Something must be wrong with my eyes 

Because I’m stuck on justifying each missing try 


You weren’t here 

You were hours and hours away, not even close to being near 


I’ll wait and wait and wait and wait 

Even though it’s me you’re trying to shake 

Did you ever love me?

Did I ever cross your mind? 

Because now I’m on the bathtub floor with the razors that I find 


Blood is running down my thighs 

I’m either laughing or crying, not sure why 

My wrists are stinging and my heart is throbbing 

If I don’t bleed I don’t hurt enough; I’m never stopping
