Finally.

Candles scent the air as she sits razor in hand

Worthless

The razor burns

Stupid

The cut is deeper

Lonely

The pain slides through

The words repeat over and over in her head as the razor flies across her skin

Finally the blood drips and with it the release she was looking for

Traces of red flowing across skin lead her deep into her head and nothing else is real for those moments

Her mind is finally quiet
