I Found You

For Marty, you saved me. This is one of many for you. I'm not creepy!! Scissors meet wrist, my body shakes, I drop the scissors, As the blood cakes. Razor meet thigh, I breathe in deep, I clean off the blood, Right before I sleep. Knife meet neck, I think of you, I cannot do it, It cannot be true. Fingers meet keyboard, I write this all down, To remember the times, I wore scars as a crown. Lips meet yours, My heart beats fast, You do this to me, I want this to last. Palm meet stone, Is there a hidden purpose, I look at you, More than slightly nervous. Heart meet you, What I feel is love, I thank God, For this gift from above. Lungs meet smoke, I'm in San Francisco, What I was thinking, I'll never know. Voice meet Michael, He seems like another, I soon tell you, Is he your brother? I meet you, You gave me hope, You gave me strength, Enough for me to cope. Thank You

Congrats on the feature, Molly. Sadly the cause is never convicted and the victim struggles for years. This one sounds like a happier ending. Keep believing. Vince
