Bloody Resolve

i cut myself in the bathtub, and felt the sting of hot water cover my broken skin

as I watched the red drip from my body, I thought of you, as I often do

in the midst of it all, I drew your face with my blood, the color contrasted beautifully over porcelain white

you always did stand out to me, and your words left me bloody

i swirled you around in the water, and I watched your expression change, as I continued to pour crimson rain, until the tub grew cloudy, and my mind began decomposing

i watched your face dissolve slowly, and I was left with a pool of scarlet, and a sting

and then, nothing
