Blades

By ReddropX

Blades shine bright
When lights are just right
As decay sets within
The ceremony begins


The walls crumble
My hands tremble
Wrist exposed with a twist
It's all come to this


Tip to the skin
I'm scared to begin
Heart turns to spade
As I enter the blade


Blood starts to seep
I’ve pushed it so deep
Slide to the side
But I still can't cry


Time for the other side
The pain makes me writhe
So fucked up inside
Took this to feel alive


Blood’s flowing so fast
Just one last slash
To end all the pain
Let every drop rain


Death of soft lights
Death of star lit nights
Death’s what to be
Death of me
