• Description: trigger warning? (self harm mention kinda).
  eh idk one of my better pieces in my opinion.
  it's kind of all over the place but I wrote it with deep emotion and it applies to a certain situation i was in.
  the last line translates to "tear-stained linens and blood stained wrists"

I can’t speak my mind
Because I hanged myself with words
Since the rope didn’t work.

I want to throw out the truth
But I’m weak and I’m scared.

Your eyes tell me stories your mouth hasn’t spit
So I wonder if mine do the same.
Can you read them?
I suppose they’re clouded over by now
With all the lies I’ve been told
And the promises I broke.

I lose myself in the night
Wishing for connection
Creating pain.

If you’ve never swallowed metal
I’ll tell you how it tastes
Because it’s not as pleasant as it feels.

So please lie to me
Tell me you can save me.

Sometimes a sweet lie is better than a bitter truth.
