My Own Hands
May 2, 2011
The slice of a knife,
With a long sleeve shirt,
Smelling of iron,
The red weaping hurts,
Hiding a life,
Behind closed doors,
Just to ruin it,
Just a little bit more,
A smile, a frown,
All emotions are lain,
Just not those of your own,
You feel so ashamed,
The A on the test,
The F at life,
Nobody knows,
No owl at night,
Then it all ends,
Not through happiness or sad,
But you take your life,
From no one else's hands.
