Cutter's Lament
The unbearable painI hold the blade to my flesh
As it slides across I feel nothing
Nothing at all
I want to bleed
I don't want to hurt
I don't want to live
No one cares
I cut again
The blood begins to pool and slide down off the desk
Dripping to the floor
My life essence
The pain is still there
I want it gone
I can't take it
My will is crumbling
Death is welcome
But it won't take me
Suffering is my lot
I cut again
