Agony

By Gray Vision

Slash
Drip, drip
The red starts gushing,
Spewing and spreading
My wrists are weeping.
For all the times,
I've felt the pain.
For all the times
I've taken the blame.
For all the times
I haven't complained
For all those times,
I severed my veins.
This puddle of red,
hides my shame.
This puddle of red,
Shows my pain,
For I've cried enough
My tears have been drained,
Thus as my tears,
This red must be stained
I'm giving up
There's to much sorrow,
I'm giving up
There's no tomorrow
I'm leaving this life,
For it isn't the same
I'm leaving this life,
In search of a better name.
To a place where there's no more pain,
To a place where there's no one to blame
To the afterlife, I must not stray
To the afterlife, there and only there
Can my soul be sane.
