Relapse

Silver kissed my lips,
And left a red stain.
A familiar dance, I tried so hard to refrain.

The only difference was the steps I missed.
The part where it's supposed to hurt...
And the part where pain was dismissed.

In this quiet ballet of self-harm's embrace,
Silent echoes, without the usual trace.
No sting, no ache, just a numb terrain,
Lost in a dance where shadows reign...

Relapse is hard, a relentless bind...

In the haunting echoes of a wounded heart,
Resilience falters, a bleak restart.

Stains linger, scars tell a tale of pain,
Hope's whispers silenced, a futile refrain.
