One More Cut

Copyright, Kati

I slice through my delicate skin
Trying to kill what is within
I know not the harm I do
Because I’m just trying to get through
Through the pain
Of this insane game
Someone must tell me
What they see
Do they see the blood
That streamed out of me like a flood
After I had cut a nice line
Because it made me feel fine
What do I have to gain
> From all my pain
When I could choose to die
And say goodbye
Goodbye to all the lies
With nothing but a sigh
Only one more cut
Straight into my gut
It would all be over
No more four leaf clovers
I will be gone
So just say so long
