never forget
i watch the blood pour from my arms
as every slice cuts deeper and deeper
my mind is slowly wasting away
hoping and hoping to ease the pain
but never seems to cut deep enough
feelings and emotions run through my mind
wishing but not wishing for death
so these horizontal lines keep me alive
physically
but these horizontal lines keep me dead
mentally
as my scars fade and renew over time
the feeling i get when i take a blade to my skin
creating an unusual form of art
is a bittersweet sensation
that i will never forget
as every slice cuts deeper and deeper
my mind is slowly wasting away
hoping and hoping to ease the pain
but never seems to cut deep enough
feelings and emotions run through my mind
wishing but not wishing for death
so these horizontal lines keep me alive
physically
but these horizontal lines keep me dead
mentally
as my scars fade and renew over time
the feeling i get when i take a blade to my skin
creating an unusual form of art
is a bittersweet sensation
that i will never forget
