A simple colour 

Found inside

Many people

Want it to hide

Some of the time

It will escape

From a wound

Of any shape

From inside you

It will run

Cut yourself open

For some fun

With a knife

Your arms will slice

With a blade

Your legs will dice

Slice and dice

Cut yourself up

Catch your blood

In a cup

A simple colour

Found in side

Many people

Want it to hide

freaky. i love the imagery the whole time i read it red just flowed in my mind. im one of those people who like it to stay in there, i totally cringe at the site of blood in reality, i enjoy it in surreal and unreal scenarios cause its unreal. Wierdly my computer is crappy and red doesnt show up properly on it so i had to highlight the whole peom..... The rhyming is really darkly fun and catchy....cool

Wow, this is incredibly powerful ^_^ I love it very much :D You are great at conveying deep emotion through just a mere set of words ^_^ sheer talent

Thanks for that it is good to get good comments

It's really good. I only have one question, well really its pretty self explanitory, I'm just asking to avoid assuming incorrectly. Have you self-harmed? I have nothing against those who do - I do it myself- I'm just curious because this poem has such raw emotion that for someone to write it without experience would be extremely rare.
Great job. Loved the emotion, I know exactly how you feel.
