Needles

I use needles
pokeing into my skin
no drugs required
just the pain to go in.

I push them in
not even flinching
the sharp point
not even iching...

Through my skin it goes
peircing my muscle

I cant even feel it

it's not tussle.

I know it is bad

that I hurt myself

But I think its better

than to cut myself...
