In the middle of the night,
you stand there by my door,
waiting for something,
looking suspicious,
ready to attack.
You say it's the best,
but I don't,
this isn't what I want to do,
want to think of you as.
But you really don't care,
still you insist,
not knowing what's gonna happen next,
I give in.
You say the pain is easier,
then you feel a little high,
as your body asks for the pleasure,
begging for it.
The only thing I feel,
is devastated,
to get away from you,
you won't let that happen.
You ask why,
I tell you,
"I hate to see you hurt yourself like that,
I can't take it anymore"
At night you stand there,
by my door waiting,
for someone to accompany,
with razer blades,
knifes and scissors...

This is amazingly good! It is dark, and cryptic, and kept me on edge reading it. Very well done. Honestly, I was sucked in at the first stanza, and couldn't stop. Bravo. You get the rest of my clappies for the day.
