Steel to Skin

by ·

1/4/2018
A foreign place
This razor blade
Steel to skin
Let's begin

A shallow cut
Will not scar
Punishment craved
Forgiveness staved

The deeper the cut
The bigger the scar
The pain I feel
Will never heal

With each passing slice
I dream of the end
Blood drips down
Pools on the ground

When all goes black
I won't come back
Swimming red
Left for dead
