Bleed

Yells and screams fill my ears as my mom argues on the phone
Tears flow down my face as she tells me to leave her alone

She tells me how much I stress her out, I realize she's been crying all along
I stand there feeling sad not knowing what was wrong

I start to let the tears pour with them not coming to a halt
I can't help but think that this was all my fault

So I searched for a blade because that was all I need
But instead I took a knife and made myself bleed

I found myself dealing with pain that didn't stop
But it felt so good to see the blood drop

Cutting really wasn't my thing but today it kept me sane
To help me when I'm hurt inside and to bleed out the pain
