The blade is poised Ready to strike The vein is bright. Oh what wonders lie within It hits the skin Ah, sweet relief As the elixer of life flows out Crimson stained fingers The blade makes another gash More blood gushes out The pain is numbing To everything Yes... sweet oblivion The pain pours out The thoughts flood in Staring mindlessly at Your simple escape As the blood is flowing Tears fall softly A small smile spreads "Look what I have done for you."
