Bleeding

Found myself hiding in a corner 
Crying over the pain that
Was never really there finding ways 
To help my inhuman mind be stable 
But I can't these demons and angels inside me
Fighting over whose turn it is to control this body
And mind 

No one really knew why I was this way, why 
I was so cursed or was this a horrible tripping dream 
But the scars and blood that I see and feel are so real

The pool off blood in front of me I could feel it
Did I do this to  myself? is this my blood ?
It can not be me but I feel my body weaken
And my mind and soul drift away slowly like a fading film
I open my eyes to look if it's me that's bleeding

As I open my eyes i see my chest is open and I'm bleeding 
My wrists are cut deeply and and I feel numb 
theres a knife in my right hand with blood all over it
In my left hand I see my heart pumping its final moments 
Before slowly stopping and ending a chapter long awaited 

Drowning in my own sorrow,pain,guilt,and the demons that 
Long awaited for my body and soul to be part of them 
The evil that longed to be set free is gone from the earth
The one kid the one person that won't be missed 
The loner, the outsider,the weird one gone forever 
I finaly found peace in death the only solution there is to
This misery of I life I once lived
