To whom it may concern:
Happy for you to know that every time I put on lipstick, I trash myself some more.
Vanity hides misery well. The higher the platforms, the lower the fall.
Smeared make-up markets my brand of tragedy.
Used to think there was nothing left. 2 weeks later, I'm sure that my soul is gone.
I know that you won't
I know that you won't miss me
I know that you won't miss me at all
At best: centimeters of ribbon in my hair, days of complacent smiles, that slim curve of a leg.
I exploit whatever charm I have, so you owe your tears to my cracked head.
Slash, clean, heal
Self-destruction is self-respect.
I can repeat this forever
Don't call
Dont't call anyone
Dont call anyone else
but me
