Alone

I’m all alone in my room
The crisp silence clears my mind
My thoughts are calm, smooth, and unruffled
I am in control as I breathe to myself
Free and alone

I am alone in my room
Music blaring, metal gleaming
My skin is on fire, stinging, slicing
“Why am I alone?!?!”
I shriek the question through my veins
I need someone
HERE
NOW
Scream and bleed
I can’t stop it
A great overwhelming cry
Enslaved by my fears
Sealed away in my very own razor box
I must escape
But I have broken the light
And can’t find my way out
