3am
(To bleed is to heal)
absolution for my sins,
salvation in a blade,
the tears will bleed from my body,
and erase the mistakes I made.
the 1st cut quells my anxiety,
the last one brings me peace,
and quiet the demons that control my mind,
and the eternal rage shall cease.
the pain will wash away my fears,
and end the internal war,
i’ll feel no anger, no sadness, no rage,
alas I will feel no more
(2006)
Though it may seem like it this poem isnt glorfying self harm, far from it,this is purely what i felt at that time
