Ouch

Samantha O'Dell 1990 (Danville, Indinaa)



Cut holes in my heart, to start
Grab that barbed wire over there, sweetheart
Feed it through a hole in the blade,
turn the blade around,
introduce it to the holes he just made.
Pull the wire tighter
Dragging the blade through the tissue
All your words are getting tired,
Slicing through organs right now,
really ain't the issue.
Yo, toss me a knife,
I won't even think twice,
You ruined my life,
so I'll gladly assist you.
The wire he has...twisted & it catches,
before my eyes, my entire life flashes
With every move he makes,
the blade continuously slashes.
Every time he's around,
this is always what happens!
Always out to cause unnecessary damage
Who knew you'd turn out to be
A big fucking "MAN BITCH"
What, you think you're savage?!
STFU & go make me a sandwich!
Oh, f*ck, I was feeling brave,
'cause it's not like he's ever listening to me anyway
Now take that blade & cut out this heart of mine,
for the thousandth time,
If God exists, you're his poorest design!
You never once stopped to think of me
before indulging,
"Get out while you can!"
My head's constantly urging.
I open my mouth to scream
out comes total silence.
But when you open yours,
out pours so much hate & violence.
I just hoped to help you feel loved & wanted,
AS DUMB AS YOU ARE,
I can't believe I'm the one who got outsmarted!
The unmistakable evil twinkles in your eyes,
something about them is so inviting,
causing all of my fears to subside.
You wrap your arms around me
feeling so welcoming & warm,
you were really setting this up
to be the perfect storm!
Such a meticulous plan, really makes me wonder,
Usuall I'm in love with the lightning & the thunder,
but this storm is different,
it's kinda hard to explain.
'Cause when it comes to solving problems, all you could do is complain.
Can't ever be to blame,
God, you're driving me insane!
Please stop treating my life like is a fucking game.

I live a pretty intense life. People pleaser extraordinaire. Boy mom x2. Music is my life. I spend most of my time writing poetry or doodling on my bathroom mirror with chalk markers. haha more…
