Cutting Life

I shut off the lights
And locked the door
Before crawling into a corner
On my bedroom floor.

I sat there in the dark
With tears streaming down my face
Thinking how much longer
I should exist in this place.

Loneliness surrounds me
This pain never seems to end
I don't know how much longer
I am able to pretend.

I reach out in the darkness
Searching for something to grab hold
Something jagged and sharp
Either new or old.

I take it within my hand
A put it to my wrist
Not caring how much
I may put my life at risk.

Pressing it in
Tearing my skin like paper
Somehow i feel
I am doing myself a favor.

I want to relieve my pain
Take away my sorrow
So I won't have to see
The daylights of tomorrow.

Eventually I fall flat to the ground
Before I began stumbling about
Blood pouring from within me
That I knew, without a doubt.

I lay there alone
Trying to gasp for breath
When before I knew it
This was my death.
