(TW: The word "died"... like a lot. Reference to ED, SA, and a failed attempt.)

Your mothers stinging word

Glass shattering on the floor

Me ma then died

Rocky died after

Not seeing father

Being nervous at his door

Our relationship died

My hope died after

Our home is not a sanctuary

Being shut in with them

My motivation died

My grades died after

The memory of her hands

Scrubbing it all away

My trust then died

The skin cells after

Taking another bite

Swallow with all your might

The noise then died

My appetite after

It's not a big deal

The stinging after a shower

My back then died

but I didn't die after

The dreadful silence

right after the self murder

their world then died

you died before
