Alone in the dark I sit and wait,
I glare at the world as they determine my fate.
Eyes that are clouded with bloody tears,
All my fears of yesteryears.
The pain and torment won’t let me be,
With this cut I’ll feel so free.
I’ll take the blade against my skin,
The pain of cutting will now begin.
The blade will slice layer by layer,
I’ll close my eyes and say a silent prayer.
I’ll push the blade a little deeper,
I’ll shield my eyes from the keeper.
I’m trapped in looking out,
Someone tell me what this world’s about.
I hate myself for what I am,
I fear I’ve done all I can.
I’ll close my eyes and slip away,
My torment no longer can I keep at bay.
I’ll bury myself alive in guilt,
A river of tears I have spilt.
Afar you are as you glare at me,
I hope your spirit shall let me be.
