Each Slice

There's this poison in my blood,
That flows throughout my veins.
Pumping inside me, coarsing within,
Acting as a disease delivery train.
Every inch of my body,
Is soaked in despair.
Hoping, praying, wishing,
They'll all wake without me there.
My days are getting harder,
As the light slowly dims.
The demons creep out of the darkness,
As they swiftky pass within.
They wallow in my heart,
As I can feel each heavy beat.
The tears begin to drip,
As the salt reaches my feet.
I no longer want to live,
Because im wasting through life.
So I look onto my arm,
They I gradually grab my knife.
I see an arm full of slashes,
That have slowly faded away.
But I can still see the blood, feel the burn,
As if I cut myself yesterday.
For a brief moment,
In my hand the blade feels right.
In a moment of silence,
I can see the light.
With each slice,
The blood trickles down my arm.
The toxins finally seep away,
Through my abusive self harm.
So with each slice I pay,
My peace equals sin.
But for each slice I'll sacrifice,
Temporary relief within.
