Cut Cutter, CUT!
by PJ Perry
You never close your eyes anymore
When you cut your arm
You like to watch me watch you score
When you self harm
That's where I found you
Alone, nervous, confused
The exhilaration felt was new
For me, for you, the abused
In times gone by you've lifted shame
And left behind the spark
To a time and place you can't be blamed
Where you like to make your mark
The times you used to cut and run
Shy away and then sneak back
But now you've made it our fun
Naked, bloodied, you hack
You stepped from the light
And into the shadow
I stepped from the night to
Where you are right now
Your confidence growing
With each teased slice
The blade all knowing
Will gently entice
I have promised you that I will
Look after you in the next void
Where pleasures are the eternal kill
And pain can be overjoyed
I'm the only one that can understand
And I will stand as guarantor
All you need to do is take my hand
For I am the darkness that comes before
