Her Veins Drip

Her veins drip
With scarlet drops
Numbness spreads
Her heart throbs

The scars that form
Are battle wounds
They remind her that
Her life is ruined

The tears stream
The blood drips
She draws a breath
Through chapped lips

She hates herself
For doing this
But it relieves pain
For a just minute

The feelings are addictive
They take her high
But with just a razor
She takes her life
