A Mere Scrape

It's red, it's real, it's mine
 
they're more scrapes than cuts
and I don't believe they'll scar
but I've been wrong
damn, have I been wrong
 
minor maybe but they feel
man do they feel
not just an inconvenience
or is it, one is never sure
 
pain, you I can handle
but doubt,  
you can never tell about doubt
where it's been, what it's about
 
you see when I bleed  
I don't beg
assistance or solace
there's already comfort in the night
in the darkness and in the fright

don't get me wrong or is it right
I'd much rather be holding her tight
gnawing my teeth, making her scream
and squeal, with my bites

 
It's only a scrape, I think I know
I'll be alright
