they tremble in fear, perspiring, shaking, shuddering. for these hands are terrified. not for the things that would seem obvious, not a serial killer, or a deadly disease, or a difficult test these hands, they are afraid of their owner. because they know what she will do with them when her heart is too heavy and the tears flood into an ocean as she draws her pain with the blades they can't stop her. they can't convince her she's better than this, that it isn't worth her death. these hands can only shake and tremble in fear.

hands
they tremble in fear, perspiring, shaking, shuddering. for these hands are terrified. not for the things that would seem obvious, not a serial killer, or a deadly disease, or a difficult test these hands, they are afraid of their owner. because they know what she will do with them when her heart is too heavy and the tears flood into an ocean as she draws her pain with the blades they can't stop her. they can't convince her she's better than this, that it isn't worth her death. these hands can only shake and tremble in fear.
