The blade pierces the skin,

Blood trickling down.

True feelings come out,

There's no hiding now.

 

Emotions coming at you at once,

Tears soaking your face.

Hurt within gone,

Its time to replace.

 

Stinging sensation,

Masks the inner pain.

Its all worth it,

Until you feel the shame.

 

There's no turning back,

No time for regret.

The damage is done,

Just try and forget.

 

Hide scars behind sleeves,

Don't let them show.

Its your little secret,

No one has to know.
