Baby

Baby, sit alone in the corner or your bed
And stare out the window with your tear-stained eyes
Think about nothing and everything at the same time
Remember yourself and what's you

Trace the scars along your hips
Where you silenced your pain with the slash of a knife
Gaze the outline of the words inked onto your foot
A secret kept from authority
Run your fingers through your hair that falls into your face
The color unchanged, the brightest of brown

Let Jarrod's melodies come crashing on you
Text your sweetie goodbye
Get in your car
And wrap it around the tree at the end of your street.
Spontaneity kills.

Author's Note

Jarrod in line 11 is an allusion to Jarrod Gorbel from the Honorary Title.

I am going to have to say yes, we are both crazy. This sounds like a very personal write, about feelings and situations within, but even if it isn't you brought me into the story and allowed me to feel the emotions. great write.

With Love,

Jaidyn

Nice dark touches. Always "iffy" to use allusions to things your readers may not understand. It leaves them asking why?? Subject matter seems to be cutting, so the cutter might use a razor instead. Jarrod section could be deleted without harmming the ultimate message.

Whoa. Once again, are you stalking me? It's like you KNOW me or something.. I can't believe how much I relate to your writing. Wow.
Really, really great job. I LOVE it.
Keep it up!
