Keep Cutting Me
Copyright H. M. Cluney
Keep cutting me
Down to the core
To the center of me
Where the bleeding is strongest
Where I feel weakest
Where memories stay
* * *
Keep cutting me
Evil, dark eyes
Plunge into me
Not a care or concern for me
Just emptiness
Looking for a victim
Looking straight at me
Shaking with need
Frozen with fear
Nothing to lose
* * *
Keep cutting me
What I have,
I don’t care about
It matters less and less
What happens now
There’s no sign of you around…
But you keep cutting me
* * *
Inside me,
You’re still here
Tearing through my mind,
A vortex pulls me down
Suffocating
Killing the nerves I have left,
A lack of air to the head
Your image spinning in front of me…
You always frown
* * *
Keep cutting me
The end is still not in sight
Pummel me with pain
So I can feel
Something
Where love is dead
Where ashes are spread…
There’s no way I can speak
To say how badly I need you
To cut me
For God’s sake
Finish me
