Slice...

Alone
The bathroom floor is cold
I can't move
I can't think
I can't cry

You are gone
Somewhere
Living your life
Doing your thing

Shaking, dried tears
The taste of salt
On my lips, cheeks, and chin

I am dizzy
Looking around the room
Trying to focus
I fall lower

Droping my gaze I focus on the blade
Tiny little thing
Nothing but a razor edge

Still blinded with pain and agony
I press the sharp steel to my wrist
I move it slowly
I can't do it
It isn't time to die
I love you too much

Instead I raise my shirt
The cold air flooding my skin
I lift the razor to my arm
My shoulder

So many scars
Old and new
But I need to see blood
I need to know that I am alive

I can't feel it
...
Now I can
The blood
Red drips of life
It feels better
At least now I can't feel my heart being torn

Once, twice, again, again
Over and over
I peirce my flesh

It is over
Get up
Wash away the blood
Wash away the skin tightening tears
Put your cloths back on
Time to move on
Time to be strong
Time to love him again
