PLEASE HELP ME WHILE I'M STILL HERE
He tears up his skin
He plasters his face on a sign that reads:
"PLEASE HELP ME WHILE I'M STILL HERE"
He is not surprised that no one responds
He lacerates as much of his soul as is possible in such a short amount of time
He picks his face so hard it becomes deformed
He strikes the mirror he can't recognize himself in
He picks up the glass and puts it to his chest
He breathes in pain and blows out relief
He brands an image of a dog on his arm symbolizing all the times he's been called a "bitch"
He imagines an easier life but knows it won't come
He impales his forearms with pins, pushing them as far in as he can without hitting anything...
He wants it to be slow
He slices his legs with a razor, then a knife, then a hand saw so deep you can almost see the bone
He limps over to the calendar that marked every day it happened
He rips it down and assaults the wall
He is pist to realize his hand breaks before the wall does
He slashes his palm so now every little movement brings tears to his eyes
He wishes he hadn't done that because there's still more work to be done
He lights a belt buckle and whips himself in the back with it
He hears a knock on the door and darts to another room so as to not be seen
He runs through the broken glass and gives out a silent wail as the pain shoots
He listens as the person knocks steadily
He is glad to hear the person walk away
He now does not know what to do
He looks around for anything else he can mutilate himself with
He goes to a door and throws himself down the stairs
He sprints back up and throws himself back down several times
He's waiting to break his legs or neck or shatter his spinal cord
He is mad but not surprised that it doesn't happen
He looks himself over and hasn't a clue why he hasn't gone yet
He stabs himself in the chest but unfortunately misses what he was aiming for
He lies bleeding on the floor wishing he hadn't done it
He is too late...
The person at the door returns to help him while he's still here.
