I see this flash come to my skin,
i'm about to commit an ultimate sin.
I close my eyes and silently pray,
take me from this world today.
I open my eyes and stare in the mirror,
can it really be me behind those tears?
is this what i have become?
a girl who hasn't won?
I pray to God for forgiveneess,
and the flash rips through tenderness,
crimson red drips down my wrists,
and onto my carpet and fingertips.
I fall to the floor in a pool of red,
i begin to see stars dance in my head.
I choke out a cry of shame,
for everything that will cause pain.
I leave my family with this sight,
a girl who has just lost the fight.
I die in red on my white carpeted floor,
alone in my room with a closed door.
I pray to god to take me away,
from this cruel world today. |
