I close my eyes tightly
And bite down on my shirt
Knowing it's about to hurt
I breathe slower
Take a minute to relax
Then lift my sleeve up
Mark my arm
Then light an insent
Blow out the flame
Take a deep breathe
Then bring the hot ember to my arm
Start to make my mark
Halfway through I stop
Realizing my room smells like burning flesh
But I cant stop now
Keep going till i'm done
A couple of minutes pass
I put the insent down
Light up a newport
Then I think to myself
What did I just do?
Before I can answer myself
I smile and laugh at myself
What an idiot I'am
Oh well
Just another scar
A scar that represents me
