Two lifesA Poem by Zafreen Keller-Malik
There was this one amazing girl
Who's name was quite out of this world All she ever gave was love and happiness But always received grief and darkness. She promised to never let a blade touch her skin Well at least not on purpose, to go right in. She was always smiling, not a day went by when she wasn't But inside dying, with more demons than a dozen. She helped everyone sort their life out and more While her's fell apart and her heart was sore. Soon enough she started not to give a f**k Promises are made to be broken, I give up. She picked up her scissors, sharper than an eagles talons Then pretended to fall, like she lost her balance. When the warm, runny liquid flowed down her skin She shed a single tear as the feeling sunk in. Surrounded by friends, she had nobody To stop her, from harming her body. She was sad, she was lonely She felt as pain was her friend, her one and only. She got up and covered her legs Picked up her scissors and cleaned the mess Wiped the streak off her cheek, from that one tear Put a smile on her face and lost the sneer. She walked back out, into the real world Everyone saw her and thought, What a happy girl.
