Stung Out
Some people get strung out.
She got stung out.
Getting high from the pain.
Bliss and misery holding hands.
As she cuts into her flesh.
Loving and hating the pain.
Scars of new and old.
Skip down and around her body.
Watch as the razor bites into her.
Lies cover her from head to toe.
Screams can’t be heard.
Tears of shame can’t be sought.
Rage encouraging her.
Whispering into her ear.
Wanting more and more.
As light turns to dark.
Washing away the blood.
Stinging as the pure water cleanses.
The bathroom becomes her sanctuary.
As she gets stung out.
