Red lipstick,
Two lines across the mirror,
Corner to corner
She stabs the heart of the X
Darkness comes as it shatters
Demons of the past
Haunting while i sleep
Taunting in my ear
“You’re fat”
“Ugly”
“Stupid”
“Worthless”
“Waste”
Their cold breath on my neck,
Whispering
As I fall into their hands
Pulling me into.
Nightmare
Of endless, cold, black,
...darkness consumes
