Losing my Grip

It's late at night
And no one is home
As I sit in the corner of my room
Remembering the things you said word by word
How you didn't even care
and didn't want me anymore

Everything is dark
There's not one sign of life
In my burning soul
My heart is aching
As I reach for the knife
My body starts shaking

I let out my arms
I tightened my wrist
To make the blood flow quicker
And think of your face
And things you've done
I tightened my grip on the knife
And slowly reach towards my wrist

As I begin cutting
I am slowly setting my soul free
From all your harm
And from YOU

As I feel the pain running through my body and veins
I think its worth doing it
Killing myself I mean
And setting my heart and soul free from you
So now you can go with her
And forget what we ever had could've been true

As I am slowly dieing
I realize this was the best way to do it
To remind my self
That this long painful death
Was caused by the only person
That I truly loved
