Cut

by BehindThisSmilex   Nov 23, 2006


The blade is resting
on my porcelain skin
pushing it down
sliding it across
blood seeps out
it runs all down my arm
warm water
rushing over me
the burning and stinging
over the gently made slits
the pain in my wrist
covers up the pain in my heart
because there is no greater pain
than feeling empty
feeling hated
and feeling betrayed
finally finding out the truth
and realizing that your life is worthless
realizing that
everyone around you
thinks you'd be better off dead
this is why
i have these slits on my wrist
this is why i speak these words
and this is why
i hold this cold fear
in my heart
