Scarlet knife

my soul is like a dark abyss
everything is black
at the center of my soul
there is endless black hole
all good thoughts get sucked away
i dont want to live for another day
the knife lays down on my lap
everything is slipping oh so fast
i feel it sear so deep and stinging
the knife no longer lying on my desk
my emotional pain put to rest
scarlet with blood covers the knife
now i must continue life…..for now
