In a world of imperfection I have tried to be perfect but nothing seems to be worth it. I thought it would be easy but now I believe there is no easy way out, so i wanna ink out my soul, let out my tears to quench the thirst of the ocean. I write this words with the blood flowing from my veins, the needle is stuck within and my jugular is past its breaking point. My mind wanders off as I am slowly detached from reality, my tots are trapped in jars of desolation. I wish to find my way back but every stride I take opens up the doors to my insanity. Such great agony I have come to know, one much worse than misery I have got nails living in my spine, and I can hear them echo, Every breathe I inhale is bitter and I pray that my last breathe blows away the wind My ribs are tensile and cold as steel with knees set on sore concrete I try to cry aloud but my tongue has been seared. I ask to know no more of this, as the blade brings estacy to my wrist I watch my pain slip beautifully to converge in a crimson pool, my eyes flutter into endless darkness and I try to feel, but I feel nothing, not this pain,not even the sound of trees. But who would heed my call? or do i wait till never comes, because forever seems 2 far I weave this agony meticulously to form a cold cloak that sits proudly on my shoulder. I know am strong so I would cut myself once again for I have come to realize that true grief comes with silence I would just bleed silently till someone finds me, till I see the fire flies at the end of the tunnel.

My blades, my bliss
