A Fit of Success
As her
She wrote a symphony of burdens only she could endure
No one with in miles radius could say they could sympathize
Wrong for her
Hear her voiced warnings of a life
Not bargained for
Not one soul
Could have asked for this
Stripes to haunt her wrist
She regrets
Stripes once blood red
Torture she cannot erase
Heed
Her footsteps not to follow
A heart
Of stained
Cruel
Disgrace
There is no second chance
No replay
Biting her tongue she screams for mercy
She taste no console
Only metallic further concerns
No feeling of new comfort
Has her plea been met
She will not know
Stripes are meant to be hidden
They do not settle with the Seeing Eye
Lies are the only cries
As of now
She knows so well of this hell
More than necessary
Leading so curved
This path gives permission to no good
Determination only ripples so far
Breaking only subtle silence
Oh
But so much farther she wishes water would drench
Saved only will make a few
Waits she for news of loss
Stripes always waver to dots
Four letters
So motivated
Torn between justice and leisure
Justice tends to call deeper
Invading the mind
With no intension of well doing
Her turn to caress this daring shard of hate
Her stripes threaten thicker
Until a stripe results in no color
Blank be the mind who dares to thicken
Please
Love
Do not stray
Today is today
Tomorrow is unassuming
Chance it
Water only ripples so far
Dry devastates more wholly the wet
But in the overall concoction
Only God can sip from this spreading poison
This gallon of uncertainty
Recollection of default
Crippled faith
Cools her soul
Falls back in forgotten foot steps
In wet sand
Only midway to relapse
Dismissed mind
Lies are comfort
Should she resort to that
Tails of reminders
Stripes
Dots
Triangles
Depends on your preferred angle
She tallies her odds
So far she is winning

The girl in this piece is struggling to an extent that she feels there is only one way out. For the first half i am telling the mind set and events that occur which lead up to her final decision. In the end i can only plead for you as a beautiful, worth wild person to not take the same path.
