Pain that Cuts

I wrote this poem to portray what pain can do to a person.

I don't want to be here
I don't want to stay
Suffering through this pain
It will not go away.

It cuts me so deep
It opens my skin
Revealing all the pain
I've been hiding within.

The pain you've caused
You may never know
Because no words can tell
No tears could show

You want to leave?
So just walk away
I'll no longer ask you
Or beg you to stay.

The blood it flows
Like the tears from my eyes
Covering the heartache
Erasing the lies

You want to build a life with me?
Is that why you're gone?
Is that why I'm bleeding?
Is that why I'm alone?

The bleeding has stopped
The cut will soon heal
I'm numb inside
I can no longer feel.

I can wipe away the blood
But the scars will remain
To remind me of you leaving
And remind me of the pain.

Just like the scars on the outside
They remain inside me too
Reminding me of that Thursday morning
At exactly 6:02
