The Cutting Game

In her head it was all a game
that she played every night.
The game had no name
but it did give her a fright.

It was very simple actually
not very hard to play.
It was all mental basically
but not everyone could play.

She played before going to sleep.
It was a one person game.
Its a memory she will keep.
Every night it was the same.

It involved a blade
and a soul that's lost.
Into the dark she would fade
and blood was all it cost.

Everyone knew about the game
but no one saw her play.
They all thought it was lame
until that one unfortunate day.

The sweater she forgot to wear
and so they all saw her wrist.
It scared them all i swear,
it was just some scary twist.

On that poor unfortunate day
she gave the game a name.
A name that will stay,
she called it The Cutting Game
