DEATH HAD ME A DATE

As I sit here
awaiting the fear
I grip the blade tightly between my fingers
my shadow lingers
watching everything I do

I have scares, all of them are new
I lift the blade to my wrist
tightly I clench my fist
I feel the blade reach inside
I slice deeper as I wish I had died

pure red blood seeps from my veins
as I do this once again
my head starts to spin
the red has stained my skin

I close my eyes
as my soul slowly dies
I fall to the floor
I try to reach the door
but its to late
for death had me a date

my body lay on the floor
and there I become a corpse
to lay forever
and never look better
I had taken my life
from the blade of a knife
