The beat's off a bit, but oh well....


Body Art

Blood slowly
runs down my arm
As I think
what can be the harm?
They're just a few cuts
just a trickle of blood
It's not as if it's
a sticky flood
I add another
cut or two
to complete "Things I Never
Meant To Do"
I drown my sorrows
with my pain
Whatever blood is lost
is soon my gain
But now I'm drifting
and I'm half asleep
I have yet to finish
"Promises I'll Never Keep"

Yes, powerful.
True or not, make your scars matter, whatever they may be from.

Wow. Powerful.
It's funny because I'm beginning to think you wrote it with experience in that subject. It's right on, did you know that? Wow. Wow...
