the cold is seeping in through my clothes.
i don't want to see your proof;
the bottle caked
with dried up blood,
the deep scars rasping over
the pretty song of your skin.
you say you broke the promise
to keep from deceiving yourself.
but don't you know
your truths are lies.
you can't break yourself to stay whole.
you tell me that it's quiet now.
with your voice cool and
detached
like hospital sheets

| Nice poem. I can understand your position on the matter and I know what your friend is feeling, though not to say I've go so far as that. You write very well. |

This is an awesome poem. I like it a lot. I loved the line, "The pretty song of your skin," This is an excellent poem!
