"The only remedy for mental suffering, is physical pain

"The only remedy for mental suffering, is physical pain."

Hiding by day

behind a mask of aloofness,

I bare my soul at night,

weeping tears of blood

from the cuts on my wrists.

Unable to shed my sorrow

through my eyes,

I cry my blood in place of tears,

helped by the pitch-black kunai.

But as soon as the sun

peeks through my window

my mask is back in place,

no cracks on it to see.

The scars remain though,

always there,

the only sign of my

pain.
