These are my friends
sharp edges that bleed me dry
they leave scars
that stay with me forever
These are my friends
they reflect my pain
red rivers flowing
staining my flesh, their canvas
These are my friends
their warm sweet song
echoes like a melody
promising not to abandon me
These are my friends
my only solace in the darkness
free of loneliness
free of judgement
These are my friends
bringing me closer to eternal peace
death isn't my escape
it’s a place to belong, no longer the outcast
