An Itch

Tingling all over
wondering when it'll stop

instincts take over
feeling your body just drop

the pleasure lasts for just a second
until you realize what you've done

look into a mirror
you see your reflection

you no longer have
that soft complexion

a bleeding wound
a beating heart

the pain leaves
but the scars remain

but whenever you look
it's all the same

a new wound opens
and you are reminded
of the pain
