I watched her cut her perfect skin

I didn't say anything 

She cursed and shouted 

And I said that was a sin 

She didn't talk to me for a while

I threw sticks and stones 

At her door 

Nobody was home to answer anymore

Until her dad let me in

I went up to her room

And all I heard was the quiet but cute sound of her voice 

Talking alone in her sleep

I walked in and curled right up close next to her 

I kissed the scars on her skin

I thought she was beautiful 

I looked at life In a different perspective 

I watched her cut her perfect skin

The blood dripping,slowly down her arm

She cried, I held her in my arms 

I never stopped the horror of her cuts

But one day I found out that I must

I watched her cut her perfect skin

One day I decided it was enough

She shouted and cursed 

I took her paint brush from her hand 

And looked at the canvas 

Which was her wrist

And her paint brush was a razor

I took the blades away from her I thought it would stop

It stopped for a while 

But then I walked to her house again

And her mother opened the door 

Without a word 

I ran up the steps

What I saw next was traumatizing 

I screamed and I cried like a little kid

Until I noticed she was still breathing

I called someone 

They rushed quick and when we got to the place 

They fixed her up with a stitch(es)

I watched her cut her perfect skin 

She had stopped and was seeking help

She got it and started to feel better 

We were happy together at last 

She never cried 

She was always so happy 

We were both finally happy 

I watched her cut her perfect skin
