real friend

By kissofdeath

You pissed me off so bad that night I tried to take my own life.
I sliced across, and cried so hard, that the tears mixed with blood left permanent scares,
Then I had a thought and stopped in mid thought……
This feels really good, the pain has gone away, maybe I’ll kill myself, another day.
Every time you pissed me off there was another mark, It made me feel good to have something sharp, wherever I went I had something there, I started carving without care,
Sometimes light and sometimes hard, I didn’t care as long as it scared.
Until the night you brought me to my knees, It got so bad I wanted to bleed,
I went upstairs and found my friend, he talked to me and told me vent,
Knowing that he was right, I went to take my own life, I stumbled down to the door and asked you to look, you looked in horror, I told you that I was happy now, you screamed, for someone, someway or somehow, the next thing I knew I was still alive, I screamed for my friend I screamed to die, My friend still talks to me, he taunts me sometimes, he makes me remember the good ol’ times, someday I shall visit, my friend again, there’s a place in my heart for him till the end.
