Colours

My heart,
An open wound,
Pour salt into it,
Make the pain worse,
My heart,
Once red,
Now black,
Black with hatred,
My life,
Goes spiraling downward,
I can't stop it,
Can't stop the pain,
Can't stop the insanity,
The hate,
Can't stop the madness,
Can't stop the lingering looks toward you,
Can't stop the evil thoughts toward you,
Can't stop liking you,
You used me,
You abused me,
And I liked it,
I hate myself for liking it,
Liking you,
Most of all,
I hate you,
For putting up with me,
For liking me back,
For trying to help me,
I need help,
I'm dying on the inside,
Burning with rage,
I'm burning on the outside,
My pain coming off in waves,
My life,
Going down,
The knife,
So sharp,
So clean,
So shiny,
So cold,
My flesh heats up the blade,
The colour of my skin reflected in the blade,
The colour of the blood,
The blood running down my wrists,
The blood running down my neck,
The colour of my eyes,
The colour as they die,
The oxygen stolen from my lips,
My lips fading,
My hair clotted with blood,
My eyes staring at the bloody knife,
One last thought,
"You tried to help me,
And you failed,
You hurt me more,
More than anyone could tell",
My faded brown eyes staring into the darkness,
Unblinking,
Unmoving,
Dead
