Just One More Cut
Just. One. More. Cut.
she thought that was all
just one more sliver
and all would be solved
but the pain was addicting
she couldnt escape
she believed in redemption
enclosed in the blade
the cuts how they blead
dripping crimson release
and with a look to the mirror
sees a girl with a creed
To never admit this
to never reveal
the only release now
is with silver and steel
Her worries are worthless
her cries go unheard
and with each passing moment
she feels more despair
The daylight it dwindles
till moonlight appears
the darkness it covers
the sorrow filled tears
She stares at the slivers
the gashes too deep
she looks to the razor
as eyes shut to sleep
just one more cut
was all that she plead
but she took it too far
and now she is dead
