Favorite Quote:
I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.<br /> -Marilyn Monroe


Blood

Coats my fingers

Under my nails

And I scrubbed

Until my hands

Grew red and raw

But the blood wasn’t gone


The blood of lost friendships

Apologies never said

Stresses of being accepted

And sharpened words

That pierce my skin


And I wrap my hands

With bandages

Covering up the blood

Forgetting

Until the night comes

And I’m alone

And the blood returns
