Pink badger of doom! |

I was sat in my box on
rainy afternoon and I decided it was time to redecorate. I stared at the bright and sickly sweet, colourful yellow walls and
the carpet, a rich sky blue colour, all fluffy and soft. This box wasnt mine, it didnt feel real, it felt like it belonged
to someone else. I sat on the floor and contemplated, although being left alone with my own mind is never a spectacularly
brilliant idea. After careful pondering it was decided and I set to work on painting over the sunshine coloured walls.
For three days I worked
on transforming this unfamiliar place into somewhere I felt at ease and at home. Two
walls I painted dark red with veins that seeped blood red paint; the others were black, darkest matte black. The floor was
now bare and only a few spots of paint adorned the wooden boards, these sinister looking stains added to the eerie aura. I
sat admiring my handiwork and finally felt at home in my box, my four walls. No doors, no windows and those walls that close
in if you stare at them for long enough. As I waited for the voices to begin their taunts I watched the veins pulsate and
bleed.
Home at last.

I know that youre both
disappointed in me,
After all that I've done
how could you not be?
You have to know I have
feelings too,
I'll never be you,
I'll never be you,
The way that you look,
Makes me so aware,
How much you hate me,
You think I dont care,
Every disappointed frown,
Every sigh of despair,
You make me always wish,
Wish I wasnt there,
The things that you say,
The anger on your face,
Makes me realise,
To you I'm a disgrace,
I'm sorry I guess,
For the trouble I cause,
I'm sorry, so sorry
For starting those wars,
Slowly I'm healing and
one day you will see,
I'll never be you,
I'll always be me.
