WHAT THE HELL HAVE I DONE by Wendy Laird |
|
|
More... |
I feel myself reaching for a knife, |
| *Mum, I am mad... | My knife, |
| What the hell... |
The knife, |
| My Dream | Staring back at me. |
| *So Many Ways | I took it, |
| Dark Rain | looking for a space, |
| Gone | An empty space, |
| Why? | Somewhere I can cut. |
| *Goodbye | I slashed my arms, |
| *My Little Secret | I slashed my ankles, |
| Put into words | The energy seizes me, |
| What is sex? | The pain inside works by itself. |
| *Popping Pimples | Then It happens, |
| Psycho... | I get the feeling, |
| *Chicken | Numbness, |
| *A day in the life... | The feeling of relaxation washes over me. |
| *Crazy Poem... | I am suddenly very tired, |
| *True Friends | I crawled to my bed, |
| Have you? | Not knowing what I've just done, |
| I fell asleep, | |
| It was much easier to sleep. | |
| I woke up in the morning not remembering, | |
| Then I felt the awkward pain all over my body, | |
| I saw the wounds I've made, | |
| I fingered the scabs, | |
| Tears rolled down my cheeks, | |
| I don't understand, | |
| What the hell have I done? | |
