The Hypocrisy of Orange Ribbons on Wrists & Magic-Marker Butterflies
I
opened up
my skin.
Regardless -
selfish.
But
relief.
(Enthralling.)
And
I opened up
my teeth to
you
(and)
all you did
was cover me
in
wax.

how sad are the 2 sections of your poem: finding false satisfaction in self harm; your plea being unheard, ignored. don't kill the butterfly...

Look up what 'butterflies & orange ribbons' mean in self-harm recovery, and you'll understand.
