Every butterfly I’ve felt dancing inside. <br />Steel-tipped wings eating me alive. <br />A reminder of all the blades I drew <br />In attempt to annihilate you <br />There’s something serene about internal bleeding, <br />With my heartstrings I’ll hang myself from the ceiling. <br />Let your words strangle, my beautiful noose. <br />Kiss my eyes and cut me loose. <br />No skeletons in my closet only shards of glass <br />Jigsaw remainders of my shattered past <br />Every dagger which i threw <br />I prayed that I was enough for you <br />There’s something screaming in this morbid silence <br />My yearning to love you and your blatant ignorance <br />Falling behind, you're turning your back <br />Beauty unearthed in the colours you lack.<br /><br />Elly Dyson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/this-rope-makes-me-beautiful/
