Today I cut again
Metal against skin
Blade against blood
Scattered scarlet slits.

Today I cut again
And again and again
And again, and yet again
Scars lining up again.

Straight, perfect incisions
My skin - in delirium
A beta endorphin high
Maybe a silent, silent cry.

Today I cut again
My razor, it kissed me
Quite insane;
Again, I cut again
