stories that die: pt 4

  

She was angry.

Angry at herself, her parents, and people she called friends.

She was angry at everyone.

She looked in her bathroom mirror.

She hated everything.

She hated her hair, it wasn’t shiny enough like they wanted it, it wasn’t curly not matter how many times she curled it.

She hated her skin; it had spots not freckles, big scars that scarred her life. It wouldn’t cover up not matter how much makeup she’d put on, no matter what product she used it never went.   

So she cut it.

She used the blade and slashed her skin where spots irked at her, she slashed her wrist.

She cut her hair unevenly and pulled at it so hard her scalp hurt.

Her blood spilled out of her cuts, it was hot just like her anger and no matter what she did her insecurities still showed peeking out, laughing at her.

She couldn’t escape it; no matter what she did her anger didn’t go.

She was a mess.

Just before she could fall limp on the ground her mum entered and caught her; saved her.

She wished she wasn’t.                                                                    


She wished she had bleed till her body was pale.
