As I lay awake at night
the moon wide awake in the sky
with jagged teeth and red eyes
my monsters watch me and smile
They whisper into my ear
said, "its time to play"
"take up the knife"
and I hesitantly obey
I slide it across my wrist
watch as the blood runs out
I bite down on my covers
trying to stifle a shout
"Don't you like the feeling,"
"of skin and steel?"
I actually really like it
especially if its deep
"Make the next one deeper,"
"and pray not to die"
"because we'll always be with you,"
"even in the afterlife"
