It all starts with just one
Then you become addicted
Addicted to the feeling
Of having no feeling at all
Addicted to the red crystals as they burst through your once flawless flesh.
It only takes one to feel the pain
The pain of yesterday slip away
The small blissful amount of satisfaction as you feel release
Release from the sadness you became numb to.
It only takes one to end it all
To end your sense of wondering if you can even feel at all.
It only takes one to think of the mistake
The mistake of the new found addiction you just made
Addicted to the feeling of rubies falling rather than tears
Then you begin to wonder
How you even got here.

Thanks all for reading! I would really love some feedback. I hope that the end came through that I was talking about how you emotionally got to the feeling of despair. I was wondering if that part was confusing? Thank you again for reading!
