The one good thing about pain,

Is that from it, there is a lot you can gain.

When I cut and see those Crimson Tears,

They take away all of my fears.

When I decide to turn on the water,

And make it hotter and hotter,

The pain consumes me

Because it’s all I can see.

I don’t think about the guilt,

Or the problems I have built.

I don’t think about death

Or my loved ones last breath.

There’s no need to think about abuse,

When I see that bright red juice.

For when I see those Crimson Tears,

I no longer care about others leers.

By cutting, it won’t take long,

Before the pain inside me is finally gone.
