Threads Of Life

I slide the knife across my skin

Paying for my sins

Can I still feel pain?

My face eternally blank

No emotions as the blood drips and trickles

As the stinging dark red envelops me

The world starts to fade

Seems as if I've cut to deep today

I embrace my fate and just lay

My body stained

My soul tainted

I wake to see a blur of white

Heaven?

No, no heaven

Where am I?

My vision focuses to see faces

Terrified, worried faces

Of doctors rushing

They ask how I am

Horrible, I didn't want to be saved

I didn't ask to be here

I didn't deserve to be here

They sew stitches

And stitches that I now undo

I pull the thinned thread

I pull the threads of my life

I let the wounds bleed again

And this time I'll never wake
