A sledgehammer to a car
Would do better to my health
Than the knife at my wrist
But I don't have a sledgehammer.
Or a car at hand.
Or the strength to wreck either.
But a knife, I can find.
And my wrist carries with me.
And my life is already wrecked.
The glass in my hand,
Is quickly filling empty.
But my mind is still full,
And growing in strength.
They race nightly,
Rage, and despair
Each hoping for a victory
Me, hoping for distraction.
Sledgehammer is lifted
And put through the glass
But is it my glass the shatters?
A windshield?
Or me?
