The pain is a burning fire
Eating my soul away
It’s more than I could bear
But it’s nothing you would care

The crimson blade
I would always hold in my hand
The scars that’ll eventually fade
Ones that you can’t stand

Such piercing pain
That’s more than a memory
Will always be remembered
As my pale skin that I stain
Throbs agonizingly

You wonder why I do this
Such pathetic actions

But this futile attempt
Is all that I necessitate
To keep me content
To keep me sane
From the forever stabbing feeling
In my heart

…Even for just a moment…
