Living Through Bruises by Fleedleflump



When all around is doom and gloom,
I bow my head
and wonder where I go from here,
what wounds unbled
exist for me to split anew
with blackest filthy blades I drew
to end the suffering I knew
from words unsaid.

Without a flame to focus life,
my death will do.
In violent anguish beat my skin
to black and blue.
If only so I feel alive
with pain that I may once more strive
to cull my life, just to deprive
my mind of you.
