Bloody Razor

By Mischevious Princess

From it drips my blood...
Tiny red dots splatter
all over...

It forms a puddle
of crimson red with a gray
backdrop...

In bursts my mom
her face turns pale as
she spots the puddle...
"What happened?"
she asks me....

I just sit there shaking,
Bloody razor in hand
and cry...
tears of blood.

A couple days later...
I'm released from the hospital.
My bloody razor clean and dry...

A few hours more....
It'll be bloody again!

Something made me stop
And think....
Then I stopped
And dropped my bloody razor...

I may have dropped
my razor...
But you haven't .
And that's what worries me!

I wish I knew....
how to help you
drop your razor.....
