Paper Cut

Paper Cut

By Muriel Palanca



Paper cut, so small it stings.



Beads of blood on loosend strings.



Paper cut, you make me bleed.



I guess I'm human for all to see.



Paper cut, you're fading fast.



My blood has ceased to drip at last.



Paper cut, you've almost healed.



Please leave a scar so I know you're real.



Paper cut, you're invisible.



But you go deeper than physical.



Paper cut, I know you're there.



Play hide and seek so no one stares.



Paper cut, you help me deal.



You're the only thing that can make me feel.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

this is not a poem about cutting through it does sound that way...this is actually about a guy...what a jackass...oh well...he is sort of my paper cut...good and bad at the same time..

Hm, very interesting. Is this really about a papercut, or maybe something else?
