At night the house is still and cold, the only movement is me and the dogs. I sit in my bed, TV on mute. The lights flash as I sit in my bed as still and cold as the house. A wave of depression comes over me and makes me sick. The only way to get it to go away is my blade, I reach between my bed and the wall and pull out my rag with my blade in it. I sit and admire it for what seems to be an eternity, but in reality I was building tension. The only thing that will ever love me is this blade, and I can't help but love it back. I place it to my wrist, I inhale and slide it effortlessly over a previously fresh cut. I feel a rush of adrenaline through my veins, I exhale. I look at the blood rush out in perfectly round bubble. I clean it with the rag, and place it to my wrist again, I inhale and slide slowly to feel the pain rush out, exhale. My last one is a deep one, I place the silver metal to my plaster pale skin and inhale, I press down and slide slowly in one smooth like, but no blood. I wrap my wrist with the rag and curl up in my corner. I look to the side at the mirror on my wall. What have I become, who am I? I used to be happy, now all that makes me happy is this time of night. I'm sick.
