Part of my 31 days of horror. Please write something creepy and link to the comments below. I’m perfect, perfectly fine! Oh, my eyes are red? Yea, I danced with demons last night. Smile, giggle, laugh… Oh, how did I burn myself? Yea, well you see I visited hell last night Smile, giggle, laugh… Oh,…

***trigger warning rape content*** Sometimes I don’t think about it at all and sometimes I can’t let it go. This is to all my friends who don’t understand why I can’t feel their compliments.
