Untitled

You seem so bruised
and its so beautiful as its reflecting off from you as it shines
youre in the bathroom carving holiday designs into yourself
Hoping no one will find you,
but they found you
And they took you
And you somehow survived.

So wake up, and if the holidays dont hollow out your eyes
Then press yourself against whatever
you find to be so beautiful and treambling life.
