Again

Though I keep cutting myself on the edges of your life
I return again and again 
To bleed once more
Thinking that those corners are corners no more
Soon I will have no blood left 
To vet
And water will spill from 
This side

Crucified one
Save yourself

Thank you for the kind words. As I noted elsewhere, I'm never sure if my words will resonate with anyone else.
