I Miss When...

Fyra

I miss when knives were for cutting sandwiches, not wrists

When razors were used to shave your skin instead of cut it

When lighters were for a birthday cake

Not to see how much heat your body can take

When sharpeners were for sharpening the pencil's skin, not your own

When I didn't have to clean my cuts alone

When I could wear short-sleeved shirts

When my mind was the only thing that hurts

    I laud your choice to utilise
    your art
    as part of your survival, fight..
    stay strong!
    'keep that mighty pen, striving
    and that shattered heart, hoping'
    thanks for sharing
