Calling My Name

Found it just lying there
Calling my name
Had to find out about this blade
Waking me from my sleep
My soul tonight god not keep
Just one slice 
What can it hurt
Everyone makes me feel like dirt
Hold it steady
One more time
Follow the blue line
The red tears I cry
From the depths of my arms
Someone sound the alarm
Slipping into what I call home
Holding on to what is left
Even though I’m just a mess
Found it just lying there
Calling my name
Taking away this pain

Dark write, but a mesmerizing write into the mind of a suicide victim or one who likes to cut or harm themselves. Very creative.
