I look at my wrists
I never thought I'd see them like that again
I turn away to avoid facing up to it
But everything will come crashing down soon
I stare at the blood, seeping out of new wounds
As I do it again, and again
And again
I tell myself, I am immune to pain
But I'm not
All I am is a stupid cowardly liar
Whose scared of doing what she's already done
I look at these bloody scars
Why can't I leave it behind?
Author notes
Thats all I saw last night: Bloody wrists drowning out the pain of my loss and sorrow.

Seeping out of new wounds
As I do it again and again."
