Crimson Affection

Blood drips down a dying rose

Painting your world a dark and looming crimson

Let the warm liquid wash over you

Erasing all feelings of oppression

The pain is your only friend now

Providing a masochistic affection,

Adding color to your life so droll

It's so tempting to give over control

And just watch the pretty red rain drops

Paint your wrists into an abstract canvas

Thinking, who would really miss you

If you went away forever

The pain soothing you to sleep with a Gothic lullaby

And empty black world seems so nice

Compared to this hell of a life

For anyone who feels that self harm is the only solution to ther pronlems, feel free to message me any time if you want to talk:/ You're all worth so much more than you think please be strong and don't hurt your amazig selfs <3 There's always hope <3 Anyways enjoy, as always comments welcome and appriciated and God has the glory.
