A hate, a shame of no comprehending.

The volcano erupts,
Destroying my world in ecstasy,
Cuts that destroy my life,

And seperate me from what is real,
A solution, that can both destroy and heal.

The blade and me are one,
A sense of relief to watch my blood run.

Cleanse my heart and soul with blood,
Try to wash away the tear stains and mud.

The world keeps mocking me,
Why cant I be like blood, wild and free.

My wings are clipped, I can no longer fly,
I have no tears left to cry.

God did make me like you,
This 'art' is what I have been cursed to do.

I hate the mirror and its complextion,
In case I see more than my reflection.

Blood spilt for security,
And the endless search for purity.

Searching for Purity

Destroying my world in ecstasy,
Cuts that destroy my life,
