Bleeding...Crying...Suffering

by Heather Williams - Libra

Here it is again
The damn problem has returned
Rearing it's ugly head into my very being
I just should have left the razor blade there
Sitting on the wooden bench at work
Where it serves a useful purpose
Now it sits in the blue box
And waits for me to come home at night
Four of five slashes later
The blood pours and I can't even stop it now
I amble twords the bathroom
I sit on the damn pink carpet
That I picked out when I was young
I didn't know then that this would be so bad
So now I have to suffer through people knowing
You can't hide something so large
Something that happens so damn often
Tonight will be the first night without it
If I can handle knowing who I really am
