Pushed over the edge I fight just to keepmy own sanity always pointed out what I do wrong or what I haven't done I try hard but maybe not hard enough Why isn't she proud? Why am I not good enough?
Sometimes I envy those
Those stick skinny creatures
Some call goddesses
Humans, not felines
Who walk the cat walk
They have two faces,
But one body
Click, flash, print
Unprepared for whats to come...not asking forgiveness for what ive done
living life like if theres no consequenses... ending up like this was not my intention
I look in the mirror
My smile fades
Disgust overwhelms me
As I go through each day
Why am I living?
Why am I here?
Just to disappoint
Living with fear
I'm never good enough
A wound that can't heal
A pain I always feel
Like the blood won't stop flowing
The chant keeps on going
Not good enough
Not good enough
Crimson blood
Trickling down my pale arm like a
Small waterfall flows into a sparkling stream:
A feeling so great, it's peculiar that one could possess such an enotion.
What do you want from me?
Why is it I never seem good enough?
Questioning eyes,
A skeptic glance,
"Uh huh, yeah, sure..."
I've got my own issues.
Not the kind of issues that girls have with their own bodies,
Or the kind that are openly discussed.
No.
My issues are on the inside and are like secrets hidden in a box.
Hello
My name is Sarah
I live on the edge of nowhere
Somewhere between my dreams and my reality
My age doesn’t apply
I’m growing older every second
Yet losing an eternity every time I grow older
