Tears dripping
Feet Pounding
Heart thumping
Racing to be safe
Safe from the horrible twisted words
Spat by them
The ones who were supposed to protect you
To love you
Unconditionally
No strings attatched
But you can't run forever
And you can't run from yourself
So you take up a knife
And make the first slice
Eyes gleaming with tears
Blood like cherries
Splattering the floor
And the cool sweet release that comes with it
Slithering up your arms
Into your brain
Like a cooling wave of medication
To keep you sane
Until you need the next dose
But this medication
Is also a deadly virus
Poisoning your mind
Making you hate yourself
Making you want to die
And if you keep up the dosage
Amping it up along the way
You will
Someday
You'll end up on the tiles of a floor
Blood seeping-pouring from grinning-gaping wouds-gashes in your wrists
Eyes glassy-dull
Hair messy-perfect in death
Skin pale-cold-clammy-blue-gray
And you won't be able to hear the sirens
Just like they didn't hear your last breath-words
"I'm sorry"
