Bracelets

Did my tears sting against your skin?
Did the pale prickle with all the pain?
Did the sad word roll off your tongue?
And drop like acid rain?

Did it hurts as I peeled sweatbands back?
Did you wince as I touched the pink?
Did regret run through, did love?
Lead you over to the brink?

Did you believe you were alone here?
Did power control your pretty head?
Did the mirror you fght with bleed?
With every tear shed?

Did it push you under all the black?
Did each of them make you yearn?
Did sorrow keep you coming back?
Or did our looks make you learn?

Did you question your belief in life?
Did you cover it more and more?
Did shame make you buckle, did you find out?
What bracelets are really for?
