imagined or unleashed?

I looked at my arm,
bare,
white,
smooth,
and untainted.
Razor blade materialized in my hand,
so a pretty picture I painted.
I carved arcane runes into my flesh.
words
formed from
symbols, unique language etched
into my flesh.
in my made up tongue they read,
"i am unworthy kill me i am unholy
the essence of evil i am, unthinking
pressence of blackness, demonic darkness"
blood leaked from these words,
i swayed and fell to the floor.
as this pure evil took over,
my vision faded,
but in the mirror i saw my eyes,
jet black and filled with darkness and hatred...[/font]

...how many edits you put this through before you presented this highly polished poem like offering here. You chose a popular subject though. I must have read hundreds of poems about cutters and I have to confess yours wins hands down for not resembling a poem. As a collection of thoughts in prose form it passes, but I am afraid there is nothing original or dramatic for the reader here.
