Whats about to Follow

Kill this pain I have inside,
Through away this empty mind,
Find a place to calm my fears,
And try to wipe away the tears,

Each scar on my arm,
Is a reminder that I self harm,
Releasing the pain I feel within,
Each cut a deadly sin,

Dropping to the ground,
A knife that I found,
Leaving all my sorrows,
And not knowing what’s about to follow.
