angels exist only in the bare souls
of your eyes.
careless, all you've know was fear.
fear that you will not be enough for them.
isn't it sad that you can't tell how she's
killed herself inside?
oh God, is she lovely.
never once would you have thought that
pills would be the temporary cure.
the public will not realize until one too
many sedatives turn into self-murder
and no one can understand why you took your life.
only as vexed a person as you could feel your
worthlessness and self pity.
xanax and valium your closest friends;
zombified by suppressants.
