One Cut
Who says one cut is a problem
it's just on little incision
doctors make them all the time right?
just one little cut upon my slender arm
it can't hurt me like they can
one drop of blood falls into the sink
the pain is nothing compared to how I hurt him
the pain I cause myself is nothing to worry about
I only cause the amount needed to make up for what I have done to others
one little cut across my arm
it can't be a problem doctors do it all the time
this one little cut has become a scar maybe I should make a few more
a few little cuts I make upon my slender arm
they can't harm me like I’ve harmed them
these small little cuts that line my arm
why won't this one stop bleeding?
When did my arm become so scared?
my arm looked smooth and soft just a year before
there is no way one little cut could have done this much harm
doctors do it all the time
just one little cut cannot cover an entire arm
Oh no! I see my friend has just one little cut upon her slender arm
it can't harm her doctors do it all the time she says
if doctors do it all the time why am I going to her funeral with scars that line my arm
and a small razor blade for that one little cut later on
it can't do much harm doctors do it all the time...
