Silent Poem by Katie Huntress

Silent tears
Silent scream
Blade goes down
To my pale, white skin

Red flows
The wound starts to show
My inner pain finally comes
From the pain in my skin

Finally satisfied
As I feel the blade
Making the mark
Knowing I deserve the pain

Finally coming out of the trance
I realize what I have done
Looking down to my skin
To the blood that comes from the wounds

As people see
They tell me its wrong
No one understands
But as I might say
Neither do I
