Serenity
Such a smooth motion,
the silver slowly moves,
right across my canvas wrist,
its peace that I choose.
The glass quickly empties,
my head starts to spin,
the alcohol makes me dizzy,
it feels like a win.
The smoke fades away,
drag after drag,
i know it isn't healthy,
but it makes me want to brag.
I swing at them again,
i'm not quite sure why,
the violence is peaceful,
i used to wish to die.
the self destructive actions,
they are not good for me,
but they are what keeps me here,
they make me feel free.
