A red River Flows

by ~Not~Quite~There~   Feb 2, 2007


A red river flows across my wrist
It was not my choice to do this
As the pain creeps slowly up my arm
I wonder why you drove me to self harm

You had no right to take away
The smile I wear on my lips each day
The laughter that once was there
Is gone but you do not even care

I cry alone in a dark, dark place
Its here by my self that I feel safe
You snatched away my dignity
I know I never can be free

What you did was evil I hope you see
That you stole a little piece of me
It was not there for you to take
It was not your decision to make

A red river flows across my wrist
It was not my choice to do this
As the pain creeps slowly up my arm
I wonder why you drove me to self harm

You made me who I am today
And for that I hope you pay
I cry each night for what you did
Those memories ill never rid

And I bet you feel guilty free
For what you cruelly did to me
I can not go back, I can not erase
The evil image of your face

I do not think I truly understood
That you were taking my childhood
Right there and then you snatched away
What I cry for each and every day

A red river flows across my wrist
It was not my choice to do this
As the pain creeps slowly up my arm
I wonder why you drove me to self harm

I will never forgot the memories
The screams of no, please stop it please
Questions still scream in my head
Why you had to choose my bed.
