The winds roar with life A sign to not relapse, perhaps? The blade edges toward my skin Centimeters away Bang! A tree branch crashes into my window The blade retreats I let out a breath held in from the scare I look down and notice the blood on my arm The knife slipped The pain starts to register I cant stop now I keep cutting The pain creates a sense of calm Losing control while gaining so much at the same time

Relapsed
The winds roar with life A sign to not relapse, perhaps? The blade edges toward my skin Centimeters away Bang! A tree branch crashes into my window The blade retreats I let out a breath held in from the scare I look down and notice the blood on my arm The knife slipped The pain starts to register I cant stop now I keep cutting The pain creates a sense of calm Losing control while gaining so much at the same time
