A Poem by ClosedEyesOpen

It slips
Shattering inside
I sit swinging my legs
A blank stare holds my face together
Voices every now and then drift to me
From where, i do not know
"hello?...can you hear me?"
Yes i can hear u
Now stop talking
"Ashley?...please baby say something."
I am saying something
Go away...please
They block my view with bright lights
They hurt my eyes but i cant blink
They all panic around me
They look like little ants that dont know what to do
Then there is me
I sit very still
My eyes do not stray
I feel fingers trying to pull my hands away
STOP IT!
Im screaming at them but my mouth doesn't move
I wonder why, soon the thought is chased from my mind
I do not feel the burning pain that is my body
I stop feeling everything including the fingers that feel as cold as death on my skin
I only stare at myself in the mirror
My vision no longer sees the people panicing, just me
My skin is red with a sticky liquid
But i don't mind
My face is torn apart, so is my body, even my clothes are torn around me
I finally move to look at my hands
I unclaw them from my skin
Under my nails i see dried blood, skin that was once alive and on me
I look back at my reflection and whisper at myself
"You deserved it."
People stop moving, frozen
They all stare at my reflection
Finally realizing what i've been staring at.
