Blood Stained

For a while it eases my agonizing pain
But the memories sadly still remain.  
It haunts me every night and day  
I doubt it will ever go away.  
I'm alone now with my brand new knife  
Thinking about taking my pitiful life.  
Then more and more I start to lean back  
Until I fall into the swirling clouds as my world goes black.  
Minutes, then hours go by before I awake  
I look at my arm and see my huge mistake.  
Now I try and cover it up with my shirt  
To cover the stripes, the blood, and all the hurt.  
My white shirt is now soaked red and stained  
Feels like half of my body and soul has been drained.  
The battle wages on and on, it never ends  
Through my burning pain I'll lose my angel and friends.  
They won't hear my cries for help, my ever fading screams  
As more of my blood slowly drips and streams.  
And now my pain and fears push her away from me  
I fear that one day she'll be gone and alone is all I'll be.  
Broken and torn I'll be left in the rain  
Trembling on my knees cause I just can't take the pain.
