Staring into darkness with silent desperation
The cold steals into my arm with mild hesitation
The burn that follows after is what speeds my respiration
The bite that separates my skin
Lets out the warmth that lived within
Oh please don’t learn my secret sin
I love the feel
It’s all that’s real
Now wash it off and hope it heals
The pain will stay
Throughout the day
Oh to this habit I need to say:
“Enough’s enough! I don’t need pain
I don’t need blood to keep me sane
I swear to God I’ll rid my body of these stains”
The marks can hide
The hurt inside
This smile makes me feel – oh so sly
I think I’m strong
I know I’m wrong
This life’s too long…
