Suicide

I stare into the eyes of death itself
About to take my life
Cold sweat rolls down my face
As I hold to my wrist a knife

I cut my wrist deep
Adreline runs through my veins
I cut it deeper and deeper
My arm is numb from the pain

I move to my other wrist
As I sit with a smile on my face
I watch the blood run down my arms
I return the knife to its case

My eyes are blank now
Nothing but black starts to pour in
I have bled to death
I have committed a sin
