Cut. Flow. Drain.

The jaded blood runs passively
Through these veins
My heart is alive.
Crying used to solve everything.
Why does it, now, get in the way?
Have I become a lost cause?

When I seal my eyes
And hush my heaving breath
I can almost picture the blood droplets...
Drip :.
Drop .:
Drip :.
Drop .:

Suddenly hot water seems enticing
Cut.
Flow.
Drain.

The only New Year's resolution I kept: To be content alone.

    Wow. That’s an unbelievable poem. You’re an amazing writer. Your poem has a great flow to it. I’ve been cutting myself for a few days. It helps me get rid of the pain I have inside of me. I hope that your not actually cutting yourself. Self Infliction is the worst possible thing ever. And I really hope that you don’t suffer from this. Anways, great poem. Keep it up.

    Whoa...........gooooooooooooooooooooood.
    I REALLY liked the word combination "jaded blood".
    Very vivid.

    I'm glad you liked my haiku. That's probably the first non-sucky haiku I've ever written.
