Deeper

Into my flesh

Digging

Ripping

Consuming my pain

Again

And again

Red life

Flows from my wrists

Liquid demons

Of pain and fear

Relinquished

Lines

And lines

Of love

Of deaths forgotten

Of fear bequeathed

Deeper

Into my flesh

Digging

Ripping

Consuming my unease

Again

And again

Faster

Deeper

Repetitive motions

Moving

Breathing

Alive

Waves

In this sea of crimson

Illuminated by moonlight

This sweet

Sweet

Night

Red life

Flows from my wrists

All unease relinquished

Ecstasy established

Again

And again

I cry

Tears stained crimson

As they flow away

Down the drain

Washing away

My fear

My pain

My unease

My strife…

My life

My crimson, moonlit life.
