The Armor, The Red, The Soul

My Soul riots in this hollow body

Looking for a means of which to escape

Knifes are there, so are needles

But It is to scared to break the skin

For that means of escape is different

Its painful, slow, draging on, its Red

Not the clear white whisp that flies

But the thick oozing pool of regret

A painless escape is the least likely

A means of is painful in choice

For the soul dies with the seeping pain

And thus can never be free

So it coats the skin in a painful Armor

Ones that only help the Soul to die

This Armor layers and creaks, dies with you

No the Armor kills the Soul too

The Armor burdens, burns, buries

It is soley the Armor, no sword

It is soley the Armor, no shield

No each piece cost part of the Soul

Each ounce of the sword and sheild

Arrows, Arrows of poison, no clots

It is not poision, its the Red

Its called pride, the clots are

They clot the tongue, no it knots

The clots are knots of pride, chains

They can't ask for help, to  escape

The help is just as painful as Red

The help judges, it creates more

More pain, more Red, more knots

Some of those knots are loose though

Some free to ask for help, again

Then those knots tighten up again

This is a poem I wrote because I was feeling like the worst again, I didn't finish it because I lost the mood... I started writing on my skin... My history teacher saw it and told me don't write on my skin, the ink will seep into my skin. That I can die from it. All that was going through my head was "Stop telling me don't. That's all I ever hear. Don't, don't, don't. Stop telling me don't" Why did he have to say it in front of the entire class? Still I wouldn't have wanted him to pull me to the side...
