Crimson Stains

A black heart
Stained crimson red
Engraved upon my side

Torn in two, from the pain
Of loving you
And hurting you

Why is living always so hard
Will the pain ever end
Or am I alone forever

I feel the blade pressing down
Cold metal against hot skin
A red river rushing fast

The pain comes searing hot
The tears come with salty warmth
My heart aches, my soul screams

I watch the blood pouring out
I feel the power of control
And then it is finally over
