What am i leaving behind?
SplinteredSoul Sep 2018
Another night,
ruined by the reminder that i am nothing,
Another fight,
That leads me to the craving of cutting

What is love?
my family tear me apart,
What’s it like above?
i want to go back to the start

I miss the old days,
when i didn’t crave a blade,
I miss the promises of always,
before i started to fade

I find comfort in warm water,
the way it hits my soft skin,
I hate that i am your stepdaughter,
i wish i could take the abuse on the chin

You ruin me as i begin to grow,
i am torn into pieces as you remind me,
But you don’t care though,
you find pleasure in watching me bleed

But it’s just another night,
i want to die,
Another fight,
but i don’t want to leave my love behind

— The End —
