Break a cup in the sink
Shatter the glass
Pick the biggest,
sharpest,
best piece.
Run the water
put the point against my skin
against the blue vein.
Press.
Make my hand bleed from holding
Make my wrist bleed from pressing.
Pull.
Create a line and pull some more
Press some more.
Make the blood come.
Watch it flow
until vision is black.
Colapse.
Mom or dad, it doesn’t matter
find me on the kitchen floor.
911.
Am I dead?
Or barely alive?
Failure either way.
I have problems. This is the latest idea... Writing down the idea makes it less likely to be done.
