I trace the cracks on my bedroom wall to see where I bleed
Red leaks from the splits and this time I don't rush to clean them
I'm tired of hiding my demons
I'm scared of myself, my true self
Perhaps my normal face is the makeup to my abnormal soul
A volatile creature trapped in a cage
A bomb waiting to explode
I wonder if my mother would still see her little angel if I came undone
My hands shake
I'm forced to abandon the blade I was holding
My palms loathe the vacancy
The cuts on my wrists suddenly don't feel enough
My skin feels too smooth
I reach and lift the blade
I look in the mirror
Yet I don't see my reflection....only what's left of it
A ghostly complexion too hard to recognize
My iris turned blacker than a raven, my eyes are no longer mine
As I stare at the horizon while my sun sets never to rise
And my last moment takes my breath away never to return it
I swear
The twilight never looked so beautiful...
