Depression
Dying slowly inside
Eternally clouded in pain
Praying that I won't have to live another day
Reaching for the blade
Enjoying the momentary release
Sliding it across my skin
Splitting my arm allowing the blood to flow
Inside the pain retreats waiting for me to release the blade
Only waiting seconds before needing release again
Never ending is the battle I must face
