A Final Slit

Flesh that shimmers red to the seeing eye,

A smile shines while blood flows from her,

Elegance was never meant to be shown this way,

Yet now this is the only way.

She lets their stares develop her,

Feeling as though they'll eat her alive.

At least this way she'll dead for good.

Put to a peaceful sleep forever more.

Quiet little hums begin to start,

As the crowd feels a need to draw near.

Her smile remains as they whisper amongst themselves..

Wondering just when her pain will disease.

Forever then, Forever now?

Was that just a foolish saying we called out?

It surely seems that forever for me shall end right right now.

Forever once, Is all gone now.

I see them stare, let them stare.

Let them see the sick child embedded in me.

Let their foolishness be the death of them.

Let it all end right now.

Life seems to keep going for me,

Although I'm certain this pain will flood out eventually.

For now I'll wait,

And see just how fast I can get life fully out of me.

Their eyes are still staring, begging for more.

I feed their hunger for my pain with a final slit down.
