The pain stings
And tears well up
At the thought
Of you criticizing me again.
It wasn’t for attention
I just start feeling low.
And then I sink farther away
From where I was.
I was so close to being cured.
But the silver gleam had me allured.
I was captivated by its sharp edge
And by the time I saw red,
I realized-
I let myself down again.
