Just a poem, written because I find it very difficult to write happy poetry {04/18/15}
The razor blade
Pierces my skin.
Drawing patterns,
Red and thin.

Careful hands
Don't cut too deep.
Warm and thick,
Through clothes it seeps.

Broken promise,
Tear-soaked cheeks.
Cover up.
Don't let them see.

I feel again,
But at what cost?
Scars upon scars,
From battles lost.

I may quit
For a spell,
Not forever...
For I'm not well

I am broken
Beyond repair,
But I'm okay,
This I swear...
