Red Stripes
I love these red stripes
The sight eases my pain
So I choose to continue
wearing them
Over and over they go and
reappear
Every morning I open up those
drawers
Wondering what size will I
wear today
Do I want them big so everyone
can see?
Or small enough so my color is
only for me?
Choose, choose, choose…
Okay, I’ll just grab one
What’ve I got to lose?
My life, more blood, another
trip to the ER
Red stripes
You control my life
You ease my strife
But everyday you make me
choose life or knife
Oh no…
The color is too deep
“Mom?!
Please help me!”
I wait but she’s not there
I feel like I can’t breathe
My eyes are shutting
No...keep fighting!
My last breath is taken
