Re-Invented

I can't concentrate, can't even think.

When I close my eyes

All I see is you.

I can't control myself anymore

my hand takes over grabbing the blade

that's been alone,, at rest for months now.

Reactivated.

By my hand, by my mind,

One slice at a time.

I can stop, but my mind tells me no.

My eyes will eventual close

For awhile, a long period of time.

Staying shut.

Not flinching.

Not blinking.

Still as the night sky, still as my heart

Now that it has stopped.

Very raw and real..
The blade is there to help you delete the pain and trying to clean your heart by the hurt and the blackness that it's owning it..
Well done..

Sad, raw, and deeply descriptive. Reading the word "slice" actually hurts, in an abstract way, so that word choice was powerful. Well done. :)

Ah this one is so sad and full of emotion. I really like these lines: "Still as the night sky, still as my heart
Now that it has stopped." They grabbed me and showed the gravity of the pain written, so much so that their heart stopped. Beautifully written my friend.
