         Bloody smears

      Days spent sleeping


      I ran out of meds

   I can't do that again


      Something's wrong with me

   I'm always declining


I think I might be borderline

I don't wanna be borderline


But the world is made of angels and demons

Life is either heaven or hell

I have abandonment issues

I have favorite people

   I have identity issues

   I feel so very empty


   I say "I'll die if you leave me"

      And I truly mean it

      There's no me

      Without somebody to love me


      I cut myself

      I try to kill myself


      I can't control my emotions


      Sounds like I'm

         Borderline


            I don't want to be

            Borderline


  Do you see what people say

   About people like me

      Manipulative monsters

      I don't wanna be a monster


   The representation

   Is all villains


   Usually, they get a redemption arc

   But not before they destroy lives

   I don't wanna destroy lives


   I want to love and be loved

      But I'm so scared

      Don't leave me

     I hate you, don't leave me

      Don't hurt me

      I'll hurt you, but don't hurt me


     Hypocrisy

      It seems built into me


      Will you love me anyway?

      I'd love you anyway


      It's not manipulation

      or maybe it is


   I don't know, but

   I can tell you why I do anything

   Everything I do

  Is out of pure desperation

     To be loved


Love me, love me, adore me

       Fawn over me


I'm kind and understanding

Empathetic and honest

But my personality is a lie

I'm nothing

I only do

   What you want me to

     Love me, love me, love me


I'm kind to everyone

Because I don't want to miss a

   chance to be loved


Don't leave me, don't leave me


My generosity

My kindness

My empathy

   It's all an act


I'm very understanding

   But my sweetness is a lie


   I try to be who I want to be

   Who I wish was me

   Who I wish I knew

      But I'm never me

      There is no me

      I don't even know me


   I just want to be

      somebody

   That everybody will love


My selflessness has a selfish core

         Love me, love me

         Praise me

          Adore me


Tell me I'm the sweetest

Tell me I'm the kindest

Tell me that I'm precious

Tell me you'll protect me

Tell me that you love me


In return, I'll worship you


I'm a lost puppy

Toss me a steak and I'll follow you

I'll sit, I'll stay, I'll roll over

I'll shake, I'll play, I'll speak for you

   Just tell me what I need to do

   To gain love from you

And oops, I'll obey, mindlessly
