A short poem about a man who decides it will be a good idea to release pent up anger by cutting himself. He grows to enjoy the pain, and continues, eventually killing himself.
My only friend I hold so dear
I have come to learn not to fear
the feel of the hilt in my hand
Grinning as my blood does land
I love the feel of the cut
my tender veins no longer shut
I can’t help but chuckle
as the blood slides on to my knuckle
Another cut, just one more
I love the feel and sight of the gore
Hacking away at my own flesh
each drop of blood oh so fresh
I am dying I know this is so
yet I feel no tragedy or woe
I am enthralled and happy as can be
Laughing watching my blood roam free
The smell and sight it enthralls
I write with it upon my walls
“Laugh with me as it drips
the tender blood from my fingertips”
I enjoy the pain oh so much
nothing greater than soft blood’s touch
my feelings fading, my smile dims
I have filled my desires and my whims
This is the end and yet I cackle
My soul is free from life’s shackle
I grin to bid my final farewell
For I am on my way to hell.
