September 12, 2012A Poem by Penelope VoljetiI cut my wrists with my eyes today and bled out onto the floor. He asked me too many times to smile from underneath that thin little jacket that he liked so much. Just smile. I want to see you smile. Then I’ll know you’re real. But I had never felt more fake than when I looked back at those pictures with tears in my eyes and the joke that I was beautiful that I took too seriously. © 2015 Penelope Voljeti |
