Wound

It is there
Much deeper than before

I didn't mean to
Just slashed and it appeared

I'm scared
I don't want to do it again

But still
I find it beautiful

I'm scared
Cause I yearn to create another

Slash
Just slash again and again

Paint my body
It's a canvas to be filled

Storytelling
With the lines on my body

I want
To fill my arms with words

Scared
I need it to stop

Please
Make it stop

Or else
I'll keep on drawing
