Over

130 15 6
                                    

The warm blood drips from your knuckles,

A harsh grin on your face.

The memories are dead at your hands.

That had enough of you screaming in your sleep.

Just sitting around, letting the hours tick by.

Hoping for happiness.

It doesn't come.

You grow insane waiting for it.

Don't bother trying

Don't bother crying

Don't you understand that you're dying?

Maybe that's a comforting thought, to know that your racing thoughts will be at rest one day soon.

They'll disappear into the empty black void of nothingness.

That's where everything goes eventually

So until then, Continue to let the blood soak into your skin

Keep that crazed look in your eye.

It'll be over soon.
