Burning inside
The pain that I feel
I always seem fine
Even though i'm not healed
Cutting my wrist
seeing it twice
Wanting to do this
Every night
Watching the blood
Drip all down my arm
Feeling the pain leave
As I stand there so free
Wanting this to be
The final act I see
Not having the nerve
To set myself free
Author notes
So I wrote this just after cutting my wrist a year about.I was going through a lot of things and I needed a release.

I know the feeling of cutting all too well. I have been in that situation before. This is a good write. I dont know that i get the third stanza that well it is the only one that does not rhyme that well. There is alos of feeling in this write though. I would like it if you could write something in your author comments that was the only rule i had. I will come back and look to see what you add. Thank you for joining the contest.
