☆ the extent of my sadness ☆

The extent of my sadness,
goes further than the silk road.
It puts me in the state of drowsiness
and leaves me no antidote.

It's more than just a slice,
it's the every breath I take.
The delicate skin, to be precise
is the sow that I rake.

I am consumed by the urge,
to inflict multiple wounds.
It is the physical pain that helps me dodge
the internal monster that croons.

No, I do not have schizophrenia,
but depression? Maybe yes.
Every night it gives me paranoia
so I stare up the ceiling in a daze.

When I go to school, people notice
the dark circles that plagues my skin.
It makes my heart squeeze in anything but bliss,
so I shy from the eyes that has me pinned.

"Are you okay?" they would ask.
"Of course," I would lie.
I have to keep my mask
so they won't send me away in a blink of an eye.

I'm more than okay;
I'm absolutely fine.
As long as the blade is here with me every day,
my inner demon will be kind.

As long as the blade is here with me every day,my inner demon will be kind
