Two Slits

by Rebecca Hubble   Aug 22, 2005


I’m sitting in the bathroom
The mirror, I have cracked
I didn’t know it would be this soon
But I’m not looking back.

I tried to find a way out
I searched every hopeless corner,
Nobody heard me shout
And now I am a goner.

I hold a piece of glass,
It shatters in my hand.
The dark won’t come to pass,
I got dumped from my band.

They said I couldn’t sing for shit,
I told them where to go.
The drummer used his sticks to hit,
Places the bruises would not show.

I look into the broken glass,
And see his evil face.
I finally discard my mask,
And, with two slits, go to another place.

    I know this is kinda late but I wanted to respond to your comment on my poem called "Meth". You said that it was my fault and not the drug's fault. I agree it is my fault but I never blame the drug in my poem I just express the way it makes me feel and if you've never been there then who are you to judge? And even if this shitty ass poem of yours isn't true it still sucks! Oh and one other thing, you're from freaking australia! So stop trying to use the word playas, it makes you look like a poser. I think you're a little confused. And I KNOW you're a horrible poet! Stop trying to judge others and see their poetry for the art it is not for the bullshit you'd like it to be!
