Why do we wish to bleed?

By Syn

Why do we wish to bleed?
A mindless metaphor of all the greed...?
That has haunted us from the beginning of being
To capture the moment of our soul fleeing...?
Why do we wish to bleed?

Why do we wish to bleed?
When our mind is burdened with all we've seen.
And we cut, like it's a fiend...
But tell me...why do we wish to bleed?

Why do we wish to bleed?
Why does the razor voice our plea?
To escape from the pain that has plagued our dreams...
Please tell me, why do we wish to bleed?

    I felt this. We wish to bleed to let something out of ourselves that we can't do from crying, but that's just me. Deep write on a question some may not know. ~Kirsten~
