My blood drips,

Beautiful red falls from my pale skin.

There is no pain.

I feel nothing.

Numbness is all I feel right now.

It's alright though.

I can live in this state.

Not going backward,

Not going forward.

Forever stuck in my mind.

Trapped,

But not trying to get out.

Alone,

But content with just myself.

I'm safe here,

But in danger.

If I forget where I am,

I will cease to exist?

This darkness will consume me.

Just as it's consumed all around me.

But that's okay.

If there's no one here,

Then I won't feel any pain.

If I don't feel any pain,

Then I won't be consumed.

As red begins to surround me,

I wonder...

Would it be so bad to be consumed?

Would it be so bad if I didn't exist?

I will never know,

Since I won't be consumed.

I'm not ready yet.

So my blood will stop dripping...

For now at least.
