The slashes won't heal
The memories don't deal
The numbness goes away
And leaves nothing okay
The wrists that have been violated
Leaves your eyes sick and dialated
The skin has been healed
Since last month's ordeal
The cuts come back and leave
Your wrists more perverted

My friend had a hard time dealing with this. And it inspired me to write this. Gawd, it makes me sound emo. Ha, no.
