Array ( [sid] => 138134 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => darkness found [time] => 2007-10-30 10:38:59 [hometext] => not my best work by far but a bit disjointed as its a freestyle offering. [bodytext] => Looking in the water
scarlet drips of blood
so hard i scrub to clean it
my mind misunderstood

with every scour a pain inside
like needles in the skin
but the pain I quite enjoy
as I clense from deep within

but this is no ritual
no self harming cry
its the thing I do for clarity
when i dont know why

with every cut, abraision
I love to make it worse
feel the blood inside me
like medicine in reverse

I dont expect you to understand
This crazy thing I do
I am just trying to show
I am human just like you

For every scar a purpose
For every mark a name
But everything I do to me
I never expect the same

So please can you leave me
close the bathroom door
stop staring at my bleeding body
and let me bleed some more
