All her self-inflicted scars told a tale Hidden on the less obvious parts of her body The harshness of rejection Scabs of desperation riddled her arms Tiny little jabs on thick thighs One represented loneliness Another, loves lost Most, from abject boredom Loyalty is an urban myth in her mind Truth is to be molded at her leisure Her methodology was self-sabotage Pretend to love, then run Lie, then flee from truth Drink, then forget Consume pills to level out Inject to escape Smoke to reduce lifespan Pretend to like what he/she enjoys Get into the character of being human
