i slit my wrists today
i watched the blood
as it dripped
off my finger tips
it soaked into the carpet
and then i opened my eyes
i dont have the courage
i look down at my wrist
the one i never cut
but always wished i had
Author's Notes/Comments:
this was actually based on a dream i had in which i was sitting on my kitchen floor and both my wrists were bleeding and the blood was dripping off of my wrists onto the linoleum and as it dripped my clothing soaked up the blood
