One cuts, two cuts, three cuts, four
You don't know what to do anymore.
Five cuts, six cuts, seven cuts, eight
Stop yourself before it's too late.
Ninth cut, tenth cut, eleventh twelfth
Put the blade back on the shelf.
Thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen
You don't know how much you mean.
Seventeen cuts, eighteen cuts, nineteen cuts, then twenty
You don't need anymore, you already have plenty.
One cut,
Two cuts,
Three cuts,
Four.
Come on darling, Whats one more?

Five cuts,
Six cuts,
Seven cuts,
Eight.
What a mess this will create.
The choice to cut is a signal .
I am trying no more ,
Taking a break from doing my best .

There are reasons why one would do it .

To ease the tension ;
Express emotional pain ;
To punish the body for its history ,
Or alleviate inner rage .

To express shame ;
To provide biochemical relief .
So accustomed to your kisses
Being a semicolon followed by an an asterisk

You said you cant wait
To cuddle & kiss

I'm still a little on edge
About putting my heart at risk

But mostly I don't worry
Because, strangely...

I trust you.

A song about
A fierce dancer
Moving to forget
A lost lover.

She glides swiftly
But strongly to the wind
She dances to every drop
And so she sings.

Ridding herself
Of sweet torture
Presenting herself
With her dernière danse.
Music is wonderful,
It gives us joy.
It could be classical
Or it could be like, "mate, ahoy!"

It is invisible and beautiful,
It soothes our souls.
Repairs what is broken,
It makes us whole.

It makes us laugh,
It makes us cry.
It makes us realize
How time has flown by.

It helps me cope
When I am down
It gives me hope
When I want to frown
drowns everyone out
but I start breathing.
I admire you deeply
every note, every sound.
I have never been in love
simply just loved,
I don't know
what it feels like
to be in love
but I feel like I'm all too
familiar to the feeling
every time I put on my headphones.
Music is everything to me honestly, it's a way of living.
