Sometimes in the world you can trust no one.

Cut, slash, hack at my skin

Feeling the contentment in my mind

As the pain goes through my body

Seeing the red blood drip, 

Dripping on the floor, making stains, 

All around me.

What satisfaction I get

As the knife digs in deep, pierce my skin

Till the blood drips.

The hurt the pain oozing out of my body

With each drip.

Gashes will heel, scars will stay

Reminder of what I’ve done today.

The release I felt, till the hurt had gone away.

My knife is my friend

The only one I can trust

Not to spill my fears, secrets or dreams.

The one that can take the hurt and pain away,

The one that will be my lifelong friend.

    The long life friend you speak of makes you feel some thing because of numbness from other feelings.
    I dont like your long life friend.

    Oh dear! It is so sad to feel like that. I wish I could help. A very well expressed piece.

    This is scary when a knife is your best friend, do you need some help and want to talk to someone?

    Revealing and sad. Just ring me a pm, I’m always here. I’d rather be your best friend than a blade. Seriously!

    A different way of looking at life. Well portrayed.
