revised

so a friend of mine edited a poem of mine & heres what came out of it :]

we scratch the glitter off our arms

 wipe all colors from our faces

  disillusioned lost in space

   we can’t comprehend the harm

   we've inflicted on ourselves

    our hearts have fallen off the highest shelf

      shattering pieces

       hope i won’t cut myself

        drugged up and dirty

         gorgeous glittering

          crying girls clinging to the sink

too much to drink boys hugging porcelain bowls.

                         the circles under colorful eyes dark as ink

                        all the girls dream to be the next skanky starlette

all the boys bet who will make it to a bed

all the virgins hope it will be them

                  they’re drugged up and new

                  don’t know the harm they could do

       they haven’t seen what comes next

       never awakened wondering what the hell did i do?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

lose it all when it won’t hurt you

but don’t wake up

cause memories will haunt you

so drink some more

smoke some more

swallow a little

don’t come back to this world
