Cutting
The razor dances on her skin
Creating patterns of red
Oozing from separated flesh
Making her smile
Making her cry
The blood is like a drug
She can never have enough
Once she sees that first drop
She craves for more
Ignoring the stinging
Ignoring the pain of the blade
When it cuts deep
Seeing the crimson liquid
Makes it worth while
Then she's done
And the tears spill
The hurt returns
Her skin is red and puffy
Fresh, raw scars
Long sleeves to hide them
So no one will know
She's fine
She's fine
She's happy.

I used to do this. Everyday is a struggle to not.
