Ask me anything   Yours truly    

mess up my bed with me..
Shannon, 19, Made in Canada
Alive but Barely Breathing

Alcohol to numb the pain,

weed for the low, 

damn I’m so messed up,

how did I let myself go?

Surrounded by people,

but I felt so alone,

my feet took me for a walk, 

I was in my own zone,

A hazy shadow appeared,

and an unfamiliar hand,

where am I right now?

and why can’t I stand?

Next thing I knew,

I awoke nauseous and scorn, 

every inch covered in dirt, 

my clothes were all torn,

I tried to get up,

but collapsed back to the ground,

I called out for my friends,

but of course heard no sound,

These days my smile has faded,

my head hangs in shame,

without knowing the face who broke my spirit,

I only had myself to blame,

I no longer sleep, 

he haunts me in my dreams,

if only I had someone, 

to silence all my screams,

So now here I am,

breathing but in a trance,

my life has been taken,

by a man who took off my pants.
