PAINFUL PORTRAIT
Stripped away tender flesh
To ease the hate inside
Insert the knife, slowly press
Drain away my pride
Forget the pain, I contain
These cuts I can not hide
Still the same…nothings changed
Shameful lips that lie
Arms that shed crimson blood
Release unwanted tears
Deteriorated faith and love
My soul has disappared
A bloody scene within the mirror
A portrait of my life
Why I cut? It is not clear
My demons won the fight
