I paint a pretty picture
On the base of my wrist
With my razor and red liquid
My hand clenched into a fist

I do one stroke for everything I hate
Everything that gets me down
I do one stroke for everything that turns my ugly smile
Into an even uglier frown

One stroke for promises
That are very often broken
Then one stroke for love not returned
When someone throws away my kind token

Another stroke goes on my wrist
For all the unfairness in this time
Things go good for one split second
And go bad for months at a time

A stroke for all the people I can't stand
A stroke for all the unfairness in this time
A stroke for all the stupidity in this world
A stroke for all the guns
That **** all those innocent people

I use this razor to  show the things I hide inside
One more stroke and I'm dead
Guess what
*I hate committing suicid- ...
This is another version(well, my version) of my friend's poem  (Shani Jonas) with a few edits. Just to let you know that I did not write the original. ^-^
