Pain.
Like sliding down bannisters
made from razor blades.
Like bathing in rose bushes,
swimming in broken glass.
I bought an Emo lawn.
It cuts itself.
Because I'm too busy ...
... cutting Me.

For Claire.
I know you joke and make light of your self harm
but I look passed the smiles and bright eyes,
and see the pain still there waiting to come out.
I also know you didn't mean to take it so far this time.
Maybe by the time you read this you will be getting
the help and support you need.
I send love and best wishes for a speedy recovery.
<3 Paul.
