Release

I don't know why I did it
Just the thought of release
Seemed to calm me somehow
In that instant
As metal hit my skin
And the smell of blood
Reached my nostrils
I knew I was not okay
That even the facade that I put up
Even the mask
Couldn't hide what I felt anymore
I was losing the part of myself
That began to care
About getting better
I began to slip
And now finally I'm falling
And I know this time
I might not get back up.
