I look in the mirror
In the morning.
I look great
feel great...
by the end of the day I'm avoiding the mirrors.
Avoiding the reflection
Though I look exactly the same.

Compared to everyone else
I'm plain.
I'm boring.
I'm bland.
I look exactly the same as this morning
But now I feel disgusting
when looking at all the beautiful people.

You're so pathetic
I can't believe you.

that resides in my veins
that covers the blood like a pain filled blanket.
But it feels so good, and I cannot bring myself to pull away.

Heroin is flexible
You can smoke it, sniff it, inject it
But I only stab it for it leaves a mark.
The single scar it leaves
after I inject myself in the same spot...

Preface
I can see beyond his broken eyes, empty face and scabbing arms. I can see past the pained cries he screams in his sleep, the blood on his sheets, the knife on his night stand and the broken bottles on the floor. The peeling wallpaper, the bloodstained pillow that never dries from his tears at night. I see through it all to the inocense deep beneath the layers of hurt he fails to hide from the world to see. When he is with me, a laugh might crack from the cage he calls his chest. And one single, dry, blank laugh is enough to see preogress. Even though he pretends nothing is wrong,...
