All That Chaos
…all my screams weren't wasted into the night
If only I'd known then
what I know now
I wouldn't have pushed
the blade through my skin
and sacrificed my blood,
begging
for someone who would
touch my skin and not feel burnt,
someone who would touch
my skin and want to touch it again
Instead, all I had ever
had
were boys who didn't know
the pain their hands could cause
and the chaos their words
could leave in the maze of my mind
If only I'd known then
what I know now
I wouldn't have bruised
my knees on the tiled floor
and accepted the pain as
my fate, praying
someone would touch me
despite the bloodstains and not flinch for once
If only I knew then what
I know now
I would've told myself it
would be worth it
I would've known
all that chaos
would lead me to you.
