PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I cut myself today

Just to see if I would bleed

To watch the dark, red fluid

Pour outside of me



I let it sit and throb

Just to see if I could feel

Maybe the pain on the outside

Will make my insides heal



I let the salt of my tears

Burn this open wound

I fear I stepped into this world

And opened up too soon



I let it grow hard

Another scar to hide

At least this is better

Then dying inside.
