Trapped

One cut,

two cuts,

three cuts,

four.

I watch my blodd splatter

as it hits the floor.

Five cuts,

six cuts,

several more.

I don't don't want to feel anymore.

I'm up to twelve now, 

they grow deeper as I go,

yet I still add more.

There's so much blood,

I can't see my skin anymore.

Can't count the cuts now,

but it doesn't matter.

I've gone more insane 

than the Mad Hatter.

I feel my eyelids droop and

I fall.

White tile,

now stained red,

I'm bleeding out.

I'm almost dead.

This is what happens

when you're trapped in your head.

"Upon his bench the pieces lay
As if an artwork on display
Of gears and hands
And wire-thin bands
That glisten in dim candle play." -Janice T., Clockwork[love that poem, dont know why, im not steampunk]
