Dermatillo-mania
if i keep picking i’ll be fixed
fight my own skin and body until i win
where do i put my hands
what do i do if i’m not fixing my face
fixing, i mean touching
today i try to not pick at it at all
a minute passes like an hour
how come this isn’t called addiction

blood covers my hands daily
don’t worry, it’s not self harm
hold on, it’s not-not self harm, though
there’s blood all over my hands regardless
reap what i sow, pick at the scabs
so the face in the mirror looks worse
who says worse doesn’t mean fixed
