Seeing Myself

By Ophelia JadePublished 7 years ago 1 min read

My god I think she's torn.

I'll patch it up as soon as I can.

She's got no words in her mouth,

But she's got blood on her hands.

She's so tired,

She can't walk.

Can barely even stand.

I think she's okay, but,

She's hurt beyond what you can understand.

But you tell yourself other lies.

Thoughts you want to believe.

You realize she must be worn.

Miserable.

Delicate.

Sore.

And you've gotta remember...

Every rose has it's thorn.
