Deserve

It's numbing.
Dissociating.
Alone.

I deserve this, I think to myself
With the sharp metal against my wrist.

Red liquid pours from the line
But I sit still and watch, thinking it's fine.

You'll never be enough, I say.
The razor drags and makes more pathways.
I feel like my emotions resemble trying to
find a needle in the hay.

Alone. You deserve your mind filled with clutter.
You're nothing more
than a rat in the gutter.
