The reflection in a knife

Why am I like this...

Why do I feel these things I feel

Those feelings I keep deep deep down

But they stay so close underneath my skin

Just aching to be let out

Screaming through my ears

I notice it in the smallest of things

The way my fingers twitch

My sudden slowness in breathing

The metalic taste against my tongue

As someone just sits near me...

I don't understand why I get like this

My therapist said it's abnormal

But I was clever

I was so very clever...

I'm a free man among the living

I am free

I am capable of those deep deep feelings

That make me so abnormal

I don't know why...

I just don't know....
