Bleeding

The knife in my hand is your hatred

A bitter blade thrust into my skin

I want to kill you

I want to die

Slice the skin and let it out

All the years of you

Telling me over and over how worthless I am

I hate you

Blood on my hands

Its mine not yours

Damn it all

Do you see it in my face

My rage

My pain

Does it show when you look at me

Or do you see only the worthless little shit

You so often called me

Am I to you now a nightmare

Do you fear me as I feared you for years

Or am I still of less importance to you

Than the gum you scrape off your shoe at the end of the day

Damn you

Words can cut me

Far deeper that this knife

Words will kill me faster than loss of blood

Could ever do

Your words

Every time I think I may have made you understand

You turn your back on me again

All I ever wanted

Was your love

But you had nothing to give me

All I ever needed was your approval

But I got your scorn, your ridicule, your malice

Now it’s cut into my skin

The memory of how little you think of me

Carved into the flesh you so often maligned:
