Water

A trickle of blood,

none too familiar.

The pain is like a thousand stabbing knives,

this somehow seems to calm me.

I crave for this feeling,

trying to fill in the gaps of my life.

Life...ha,

I don't deserve life.

I sit here in the bathtub,

my blood staining the water.

I try to lift my arm,

try to strike my body again,

but I cannot move it.

I have no more energy,

not even to inflect pain upon myself.

That was the only energy I had,

I have nothing now.

The water slowly drains,

my life flowing down the pipe.

I start to feel more faint,

my mind is drifting away.

The last bit of water drips out,

and my eyes close.
