My mouth is sewn shut
Sadly and silently I scream, while I
Redden this powdered face.
I can be happy now that
There is a chance for yours.
Love is worth it, right?
A soul is soothed tonight.
You didn't want me fat.
So I will never eat again.
You hated my comments.
So i will never speak again.
You didn't want my apologies.
I'm sorry.
Author notes
I dunno. It's just what the picture made me feel. Love is madness sometimes,and the lengths people will go to to keep their lover even though it's not worth it is crazy. Yep.
The first part is an intricate acrostic. The first letter in the first line is "m". The second letter in the second line is "a"...etc. until it spells madness.
