My Tears

My Tears

A Poem by Curtis.Lenker

my tears run down my face 
like blood runs down my arm 
my sink full of tears and blood 
the razor on the counter beside me 
knowing that it is my only friend 
pouring salt on my wounds 
just to feel the burning sensation 
for a brief moment I feel alive 
and all my pain and numbness are gone 
god how I have missed this feeling 
sitting against the wall thinking to myself 
oh my god what have I done again 
the feeling of guilt sets in 
wondering why I did what I did 
asking myself is this worth it 
again the pain and numbness sets in 
is there a reason why people like me 
play with razor blades and bleed for fun 
maybe its because we need to feel something 
to take us away from the hurt 
or maybe we need to feel alive 
in some way shape or form 
again I sit alone with nothing and no one 
the only thing I know that I have for life 
is the tears I shed that no one sees
