blood stained arms, swollen face, red rimmed eyes. The blood flows freely from where the blade gashed my flesh. Slacker cut Not good enough slash Worthless a new slice appears. Each with red, ruby red, emerging from the depths of my sorrow. Each word rips into me, and I carve, carve the image i want to be, carve the pain i long to be free from. The crimson stains my skin, giving each laceration a halo of red.

Halo of Red
blood stained arms, swollen face, red rimmed eyes. The blood flows freely from where the blade gashed my flesh. Slacker cut Not good enough slash Worthless a new slice appears. Each with red, ruby red, emerging from the depths of my sorrow. Each word rips into me, and I carve, carve the image i want to be, carve the pain i long to be free from. The crimson stains my skin, giving each laceration a halo of red.
