Cut

By Fallenfromgrace

sweetest release, feeling steel through the vain,                   Drains a heart that's as black as a shadow.                                    in moments I'll taste what is bliss through the pain.                        For I'm taken, forsaken, I'm broken -n- hollow
the flow of the blood of my wrist falls away,                                   for I'm nothing, I'm scattered and shattered with hate                    now I'm  clutching so tight as reality fades;      
As I falter alone in the darkness of shade.                                  The essence is bled from this heart made of stone,                        for my blood is now streaming like water.
as I lie in a pool of it drowning alone,
as I choke on the taste of the slaughter.
For the moment I'm free of this world I despise,
no longer a slave in the way.
For the moment, in peace, release tears from my eyes,
for the shadow is cast, in the casket I lay.
