I Can't Do It

By morbiddemonchild

The blade pressing against my skin
I want to pierce the flesh; let out the pain within.

Something stops me inside
A gut feeling that I don't really want to die.

Tears to run and I show you the pain
It will get put out on display.

Show me your scars
Show me the hurt that's never that far.

Time cannot erase
What I am going through; my suicidal phase.



Note: Unless you know me this may not make sense so I'm sorry.
