Disappearing

Disappearing and fading away,
Darkness and despair,
Hating my self and hating my pain,
All perceived yet they feel so strong.

Emotions are lies,
My cuts and tears are lies,
Dirty cops and that extra hit,
The knife slashing my wrists,
Warm blood rushing down,
Gripping your arm,
Wanting and wishing I could let go.

Disappearing in to the night,
Cold bitter tears,
Painful scars, silent screams,
Running as fast as possible,
Leaving this world behind.
