A Razor's Smug Reveal

Strings of bruises on my back
The rash, the sting of the slap
Truth was never sweet
Never bitter
Soak yourself in my defeat
I’m dead and withered
Stand up, pull me to my feet
Look me in the eyes
Convince, devise
A plan to pull me back into the life
The life I regret living
Here’s a gift, this is blood I’m giving
A razor’s smug reveal
I took the time, not counting
Not counting on your find
Somewhere in the back of my mind
I went blind
To the swell, the scar
So here we are
The sting of the slap
The truth, its attack
Never sweet
So here is bitter
Soaked lies, defeat
I’m dead, forgive the sinner
Clap me in irons
Keep the cupboards locked
Mom and dad
I’m the abuser
The child rapist, the user
I’m deceiving myself
Worth is regret in your eyes
And I’m justified
In the string of bruises on my back
The sting of the slap
The truth is, I was never sweet
I was always bitter
I was never strong
I’m a quitter
Giving you the life you gave
Here the razor’s pay
I just want to run
Run away
Because I’m guilty
You’re guilty
The hands of the unknowing
And here is my blood in the sink
My hours of confinement
Look me in the eyes
I’m dead inside
I did this
I did this
To myself
Soak yourself in my defeat
Lock me up, retreat
There’s nothing left to see here
But the bitter truth
You watched me abused
The razors smug reveal
And clatter
I walk away
We’re all dead and withered
Forgive the sinners

This write is about SELF-abuse. You said that you hate people who abuse children, then you are an extremely hateful person, how do you live? Every parent abuses their children, it is those that do not believe that they are abused that have fallen for the mind warping games that adults play with small minds. We are a controlled future and the SAD part about it is that we all think we're so free. We're exactly what they are making us if we close our eyes to believe that they don't mean harm. Hurting ourselves is the only pain, and abuse that is of pure and honest intent.
