I could slash my wrists but what good would it do no one would give me the love I desire no touch would be gentle and sweet or wrap my wounds with a kiss no not when I look like a monster this is why you give up on me this is why you left me yes I could cut deep but it would only hurt again later when the blood is dry and my heart is depleted the oxygen spent on wailing Yet the urge to hurt me runs so deep within me as if it is the only embrace I have ever known how can I resist a moments relief when I am denied a lifetime tell me

Questioning unthinkable things
I could slash my wrists but what good would it do no one would give me the love I desire no touch would be gentle and sweet or wrap my wounds with a kiss no not when I look like a monster this is why you give up on me this is why you left me yes I could cut deep but it would only hurt again later when the blood is dry and my heart is depleted the oxygen spent on wailing Yet the urge to hurt me runs so deep within me as if it is the only embrace I have ever known how can I resist a moments relief when I am denied a lifetime tell me
