To me it sounds like addiction. It promises to ease the pain of your "rashes" - make the pain of living easier at the time of consuming. Punish with lashes - pronises to bring you more pain later on down the line. Locket - keep the substance hidden in your locket, it is a bringer of shame. The substance of their addiction puts them on a leash, it makes them its bitch, compliant to what it asks. The addict is not 100% at fault but also definitely not a pure victim. They had at least a part in leading there so they "strayed" off the accepted path. The signs of abusing the body show through the sallow skin. It is noticed and observed but can't be proved simply by this. They file away in their memory of the subject possibly being an addict to a harmful substance. Nothing is done without proof of course but the attention is unwanted and brings the author shame. The shame causes them to deny whatever role they played in paving the path to their own destruction. The question on being chastized is asked - no reason to why but i think they feel those who dont understand their position are judging them lacking and chastizing them, whether it is said aloud or not imo they feel looked down on, like others judge them as failures or trash. Unworthy. I know im reaching. Their choice of using has led them to isolation and anxiety of being found out or locked up or just being thought of as shit. This person doesnt find the solitude peaceful leading to low emotion, like crying. They miss when they could truly trust someone, beforw they had dependancy on something they must keepbsecret due to rhw fear of judgement, from the law or people you once thought cared about you. The factors of physical harm and severing of real relationships are both caused by this thing that is walking em through life on its leash. If they were healthy they might have got 100 years. They are both the victim and abuser, they cant get help because they will be punished for their actions, cry. Abused and abuser. Just an idea. |
