Cut Me

~By emptyheart


CUT ME; AWAY FROM THIS WASTED PLACE
CUT ME; FROM THIS EMPTY SPACE
CUT ME; JUST TO FILL IN THE TIME
CUT ME; FOR JUST A LITTLE WHILE
CUT ME; TO SEE IF I STILL FEEL
CUT ME; TO KNOW IF THIS IS REAL

IT IS REAL AND IT’S THE WORLD THAT I KNOW
MY HEART IS CAVED IN AND THERE'S NO MORE ROOM TO GROW
MY HEART IS BLACK like the DARK fill of a hole,
just like empty time
JUST LIKE MY PREVERSE AND REVERSED RHYMES.
please! GIVE ME A Sign .
TO CALM My WICKED MIND
