Regret

You should have been taking care of me.

Now, I poke holes into my eyes so that I may no longer see.

Carving marks on my skin

Without the desire for pain,

Cutting out my heart,

Not feeling anything.

It is too late; I can no longer heal.

You betrayed me,

When you should have been taking care of me.

I must die,

Putting this blade to my flesh,

Seeing the pretty red hue,

And painting my nails pomegranate red.
