Razor Blade On My Skin

by Heather Williams - Libra

You asked about so I had to think about it
You wanted to know about the first time
I ever fucked up my life

I was laying in bed
Thinking about that STUPID boy
The one I cared for so damn much
He was cheating on me
Leading me on with a hand of lies
Into a future of hell
Something came over me
I dug in the drawer
Without thinking I slashed over and over
My skin opened up with deep cuts
And the blood smeared all over my arm

I didn't believe what I had done
And to this day I will regret 
Ever starting something 
That held so much power over me

Reason for writing:

    March 27th was the last time I ever cut myself. I am still going strong. My boyfriend is a little curious to the whole thing and it's hard to explain. Maybe it will help.
