Hold On

by Maud   Mar 11, 2021


I traced my veins with a kitchen knife,
trying to find the courage,
to tell the voices in my head
that life isn’t worthless.

    As horrific as this is, the image of the knife tracing skin was powerful. As for the suggested action, I'd always go for expressing myself on paper.

      Paper is the better choice but it can cut just as well with the right words.
