Tortured Blade

By: Akkiko

Tear the skin from my bones,

make big gashes through my body.

Cry as one thought goes through my mind,

"I did it again."

Watch the water stain red.

Watch the blood drip down my leg.

Hold the blade far away,

see it`s tortured face.

Make the pain go away!

Make it all go away!

Make me emotionless.

Make me a rock.

Slit another gash and fall to the floor.

Let the tears fall as I cut some more.

It`s my fault it happened!

It`s my fault I froze!

Stab again and scream in pain.

Pull the pants on, hide the evidence.

I fell, it was raining.

I`m clumsy in my grief.

I won`t mourn until I admit I have a reason to.

I look at the cuts and sigh.

I can imagine them on the man who took my innocence.
