As nighttime drapes it's cloak around me
Fears come true and now they've found me
Here come my demons now to hound me
I slice my skin it always grounds me.
I know it's not a wise decision
To wound myself with such precision
But I must prevent my souls collision
I do this, with this, my new incision
The demons halt. One bows it's head
I've stopped them with this blood I've shed
Two scream at me, they want me dead
I cut some more it's warm and red
They finally start to leave my sight
One makes a fast attempt to bite
I've been told that cutting isn't right...
But it got me through another night.
(AN/ not my poem although I wish it were! To whoever wrote this : this is so beautiful.)
