Cutting

by xEmmax   Aug 13, 2005


Go into the bathroom
lock the door
sit there sobbing
upon the floor

Head screaming
body shaking
calmness and control
begins breaking

Nothing will help
except one thing
there is no return
once the urges begin

crawl to the cupboard
begin the raid
take out the weapon
the shining blade

placed on the wrist
with the angle right
drag it across
hand clenched tight

Perfect slices
remove the blade
first there is nothing
then watch the dark shade

the blood is endless
thick and dark
it falls in the sink
a vivid red mark

the pressure is released
the tears have gone
now only the outside
remains torn

Then its all over
with an odd feeling of calm
hide the cuts
to avoid raising alarm

Its enough for now
you feel almost fine
away goes the blade
until next time

    I guess I can only repeat what Amanda said, you really are teaching a lesson to all those who don't know what it feels like!
