i did it again

my soul was weak and so am i 

 i have so little power anymore

the power i do have is wasted on breaking skin

and seeing the blood

the blood i wish i no longer had 

the blood i wish was my enemies'

the blood i wished had stayed blue

blue like my kingdom and blue like me

blue like the way my father makes me feel

when he tells me my habits are just an annoyance

so i accept

and i draw blood

or i don't, and i stay quiet, and i let the blue take over

blue blood and red lips and black eyes and 

everything you ever wanted

wanted to be me, but me is different than you believe

my best self is your worst day and my worst day is hell's best

so i'm stuck in the middle

and i draw blood

stormclouds, dust, and a little bit of rainWhere stories live. Discover now
