Let the blood spill

by Krysten   May 16, 2007


Slice open the flesh
let the blood spill
pray before someone sees
the wound will heal

rip into the skin
let all the blood drain
pray someone will hear
your silent screams of pain

cut into your veins
let the tears just fall
pray someone will come
and save you from it all

make yourself bleed
let it all run out your arm
don't you be surprised
at your act of self harm

cover up the scars
let them just disappear
you can hide them away
but they'll always be near

scream you silent screams
allow the pain to take you away
nothing can stop it now
you chose this fate

    The flow was right on for this poem. Yes, maybe it was a little cliche, but there's a beauty to it than I can't exactly pin point. It shows a certain weakness, but somehow it displays a sense of control. Some of the words you chose we simple, but sometimes simplicity brings serenity to a poem. While there was a certain chaotic feel, there was a serenity. Hopefully that made sense =P
    It was great.
    5/5.
