I never understood before

what could be so horrible

what could cause some one

to do something

like this

I didn't know

how much hurt

I would have to

hold in my body

like air

and I didn't know

how much pain

would beat apon my back

before I could comprehend

how good silver could feel

on skin

they say

diamonds are a girl's best friend

and I would use diamonds

sharp and shiny diamonds

if I could afford them

so this silver becomes my friend

a whispering

secret friend

its voice sings

harsh notes

that sand away my skin

so it is raw

and thin

and ready for it

just a little deeper now

I know better things are buried

beneath it all

I just have to release it

so with each drop of my blood

a sigh of relieve escapes me

just a little deeper

and maybe

just maybe

I'll bleed out
