Women Romanticize This
Letting go
after the thorns have cut
is the hardest thing to do.
The blood is sweet,
the scars like trophies,
lining the wrists
and thighs and you
Romanticize this
because
you'll never have it again.
The annual stripping
the annual searching
for new love
new scars
has begun.
One little cut
can feel so good
and taste so good
and the blade so
sharp.
The blade is hard to drop,
once the first cut is made,
and the romance
blossomed.

Author's Note
Cutting romanticized is a sad thing. Someone close to me has been doing this, and I have no clue how to deal with it, or what to do. It's the fifth time now, and I've simply numbed myself to the pain.
