Obsession

Shes stares at her reflection
obsession taking over her body
picking at every imperfection

Seeing someone fake staring daggers at her
feeling the sharp shooting pains of discontent
her heart skipping every other beat

She can no longer visually kill herself
she wants the reality, to feel the reality
for her unwanted body to be buried

Smashing her reflection over and over again
letting the sharp edges scratch across her skin
watching the blood drip down her fingers

Gasping for unwanted breath
picking up a sliver of glass
she drags it across her most hated portion of skin

cutting her stomach to pieces
letting the blood stain her fingers
she relishes in the pain of her last breaths

Watching bloody rivers flowing through the carpet
running over shards of deathly sharp glass
turning her tears dry, letting a faint smile slip

    I absolutly love this poem, it made me cry because... I haven't cut in so long but there is so much shit going on at the moment that i know its going to happen anyday now and... I can't even look in the mirror anymore because I hate the image that looks back at me. Great write, really touched me..
