It stains the floor

Dripping from my thighs

My eyes are transfixed

I am confused

Is this me?

Is this body mine?

I do not know.

I don't remember being alive

It can not be this

Am I supposed to be human?

I don't think so

I feel far too much

My mind is far too active

Being a faraway particle of would be better

Pain is peace

It is breath

And addiction

I lose myself in the silver lines along my thighs

In the dripping scarlet

Existing is so fragile

Should I stay?

I no longer know

Red is my peace

It is my breath

It is my life

I am bleeding myself out on the bathroom floor

And I do not care.

I realize I never did.
