I can't keep resisting
My need to
Bleed out.
The ice and the rubber band,
Snapping against my skin,
Aren't enough to replace it.
I need to see the blood,
Dripping from my stomach
And falling onto the cold floor.
I need to keep bleeding,
I need to see the dark red
Blotches on my clothes.
I don't need the pain,
I don't need the scars,
I don't need you to stop me.
I need to feel alive
And even as my pulse thumps,
As I feel my lungs expand,
As I hear the crack of my knuckles,
I still feel dead.
