Something, Anything
I can't begin to understand
Your depression,
Isolation.
But I can understand
How life leaves you raw,
Unable to feel,
Numb.
You want nothing more than to feel
Something,
Anything,
But there's nothing left.
You're tired of trying,
So you pull that blade across your arm,
Leaving a trail of red.
The blood is welting,
Like your tears.
You see your skin tear
And you feel
Something,
Anything.
