D.J. Ray - 5 lines

5 lines
cut in my skin
as if with red ink

5 lines
long and deep
bleed out my pain
the loss they keep

5 lines
leave a scar
see what happens
when you push me to far

5 lines
the scars fade
hysteria is all that gives notice
to these five lines

5 lines
symbol of life
a life which i laugh at
a living death
