it hurt too much to bear
i feel for a blade
hidden in a trusted place
i felt it on my wrist
cold and sharp
thirsty
i feel my tongue under my fingertips
as i went deeper
purging
i felt both my hands
knuckles deep in my hair
pulling
then i felt nothing
nothing but a stinging wrist
a burning throat
and a sore scalp
but at least my soul was numb
for now.
