The Girl Who Can't Let Go

The blade calls to me

Wanting me to use it

Taunting me.

Making me feel like it might be the solution.

But it's not.

It can't be.

I tell myself it's not who I am,

But am I wrong?

I keep everything inside like a gate

No one can enter,

And no one can leave.

But they do;

Just like they always have.

And always will.

The blade calls to me

And this time,

I feel like putty in its hands.

But I won't give up.
