My Life Blood

Sticky sweet and scarlet red,

my innocence has been misled.

What's the point in staunching the bleeding

when my whole heart is still seething?

Looking out with starry eyes,

I found demons to make me writhe.

Insecurities and flaws that bring me to me knees

couldn't help but get the best of me.

A gaping wound to my head

leaving me close to dead.

This dagger residing in my chest

will never let me rest.

I am the only one to blame

as my life blood shows my shame.
