Bleed

I threw that bottle against the wall.
How was I to know that it was glass?
How was I to know you were standing
Right
          Fucking
                         There,
Right
                         Where
The glass flew?

Maybe I should've been hit.
I threw it,
                  Didn't I?
So, I should be the one to suffer.
I should be scarred.

But you                                             don't
See
That I got scarred too.

Glass doesn't all fly to one place.
I did get hit.
In the heart.

So while you
                        Bleed
                                   Out,
With your wounded wrists,
I
Bleed
In,
      Losing
                   Myself
For you.
