Insanity
Surrounded by darkness
Wherever I go
Back and forth
And to and fro
This is comfortable
I tell myself
I can stay here
For the rest of my life
But is this what I want?
I repeatedly ask
I cut to get a rush
To bring me out of my mask
I watch as the droplets form
From the perfect line
Concentrating on the pain
It works every time
I am shocked out of my hole
From the insanity my darkness holds
