Images of cuts and burns
enter her mind,
disappearing into her tears.
She's been waiting for that day
where fragile feelings of self destruction
cause an unfamiliar, yet familiar restlessness.
She knows there must be
a better way to abandon the pain,
but she can't seem to find it
whenever she looks around.
Maybe she's going psychotic,
but feeling hopeless and numb
is no way to feel inside,
and images of cuts and burns,
turn into temptation
inside her darkened mind.
