Experiment
An experiment.
That's all this is.
Nothing more.
Not sure how to start.
Do i just drag it,
back and forth across my wrist?
Theres no blood though.
I just want to see blood,
that's all.
I can see line marks,
no speck of blood.
I don't want it noticable,
just an experiment.
A cat could do better,
like the one from before.
Clawed a bloody X right across my wrists.
Why couldn't it burst with red like that one time?
I don't like the pain,
i never wanted that,
even though i deserve it.
I'm only here for the red.
No knife to hold,
just a pair of scissors.
Again like i said,
it' only an experiment.
Finished,
i sit in the dark of my room,
the rest of the night.
The day after i try hiding the wrist.
It's more noticeable than when it happened.
No one can find out.
I just wanted that hunger to be quenched.
Blood in my mind all the time.
It's hard to bleed purposely,
rather than accidently.
Once these puny scars fade,
i might experiment again.
