The familiar blade slices slowly
savoring the pain
i tried so hard to refuse
but we all know i'm not that strong
It's been all too long
since I've seen you
my heart aches
It burns-I love it
An obsession
I don't want to deny
The cold blade
warmed with crimson
Can no longer feel;
numb to the touch
cut a little deeper
damn still can't feel

Ya know.....this was such a great write....I would like to know if I can use it as the POD for tomorrow on my personal site?
-
Lots to ponder here....I hope you call upon me if you ever want help....or at least let someone know......and I also hope you realize.....cutting is not from goodness....it is from something supernatural and not good......there is a huge difference between good and evil......you are a creation from goodness......only godness can help.....blessings,
...thank you for sharing this with the Group,
