Catharsis

She faces choice She wants to be who she was The torment isn’t gone, she expected it to Evaporate, over time Time has passed, and it still resides inside There is one way out She wants to kill it all away Sharp objects, broken mirrors A hatred of self-identity, Hate her, Scar her, Erase her White, virgin flesh, covered in sickly red lines Carve, cut and bleed This will erase All pain The blade, slowly ripping through Digging down deeper, exposing that which sleeps; Within, it pours out of her The blood cleansing, she slips away Euphoric, she is the creator Of her very own Catharsis
