Clot

I wrote this a day or two ago. I dont particularly intend to do anything with it. Technically it is all a lie, as i havent tried to and havent stopped cutting (though the idea has been crossing many times recently).
anyway comment if ya find any reason to ^^



my scars are finally healing
i suppose this time off the blade
has been for the best

the calamity of my mind
the neverending pitfall
a mine shaft open for interpretation

i do this for two reasons
i love you
and i need to love myself

break down after shameful break down
crying in your arms
i am no man
in the mirror
i see shadows and ghosts
jumping from my eyes
grabbing hold of my throat

forget me if you want
i am going to be awake for
many many more hours

this time off the blade has surely
been for the best

i ran away into the night
perhaps i was sleeping
who knows anymore
opening my eyes with dew
all over my face
or tears
who knows anymore

the roses are wilted next to my bed
i suppose i should have given them to you
all those months ago
but i always seem to forget my romantics

perhaps i should try to sleep
but dreams will drive me to doing
that which i swore to quit

im off the blade
its for the best
