Words cut deeper than knives
It went so deep that it killed me
But I see the pretty blood staining my wrist
And I'm filled with a lightness that nothing else can give
I sing myself lullabies
Urging my mind to slumber forever
Yelling the lyrics of a song
A song of pain and death
Words of it's lyrics scar my broken heart
Crashing into my messed up mind
Tearing apart my tortured soul
Promising me things better left alone
Enticing me with forbidden fruit
That leaves a blessing of death upon biting
Save me from this heavenly hell
This amazing reliever of pain by destruction
I can't seem to stop
Can you stop me yourself?
Too mesmerized by the flowing redness
Feeling weightless against the heaviness of my heart
Unable to leave it be
I slash once again and again and again
Tears flowing freely against my cheeks
I smile to myself
Thinking maybe just maybe this is it
But alas, it is not
That fact became clear as time passes
And finally, finally the flowing stops
Drying blood staring into me
I feel its stinging in my skin
The pain so heavy with promise
It makes me ache to think of this sad alternative called life
Can I do it?
Can I really do it?
I think not..
Even as I once again glide the metal across my skin
I know in myself
That even as this temptation calls to me
There's nothing more I fear than the beyond..
