b Yay, I want to do another Ellie poetry chapter, because they're funner and easier to write. I know the format will suck, but it's okay because you guys love me! Right? Right. /b

Paige is in the loony bin

And I don't know when I'll get to see her next

But if she ends up like me

I will hate myself for a lifetime.

Marco is okay

And so is Dylan

They're both back in school

And without Paige,

Marco sticks by my side,

Just like it was in grade 9.

I've been cutting less

But doing acid more

Because acid is more beautiful

Than watching blood flow from your body...

Wait, scratch that.

Blood is gorgeous.

Acid is not.

You never know whether you'll

Go on a good trip or a bummer

I read Go Ask Alice

And now I'm scared

That I'll end up

In the loony bin

Like Paige...

I'm so scared that I could die

But I don't want to die

I don't want to kill myself

I want to talk to Craig

To see if he knew any of this was heading her way.

I'm such a mess right now,

Bleeding all over the place and crying and snorting coke

And I'm still not numb

So I'll cut deeper and cry harder and snort more

And maybe I'll get number.

Sean has been calling me off the fucking hook

And it's very annoying

Because he won't leave me alone

Even when I say that he left me in shambles.

I'm all alone in this huge house

All the time

Every day

And I need to get my ferret back from Sean

Because he wouldn't let me take Boots back with me.

Boots is my companion,

Besides the cuts on my arms, legs, stomach, && shoulders.

I love them so much.

And I wonder if the scars will ever fade.

I'm hoping against it.

-- Ellie

Ooh, these are much fun to write! But soon I'm going to run out of material and go on hiatus, not for a while, though!
