I値l paint a picture for you today
But instead, I値l use my body
The tools are a knife and brush
The paint is red
The paint is my blood
I値l cut everywhere I can
Make it the darkest of reds
Take my clothes off
Paint my entire self
Fight against the pain I feel
If my face begins to clear
I'm sorry
Tears are a form of water
I値l slit my jawbone
Paint over again
Shake for awhile
Clench my teeth tight
Feel it all run down
Get everywhere, even my feet
Its okay, I'm fine
Drop the tools I used
Let them fall down slowly
Fall down to my knees
Sit in the mess I致e made
Shiver, so cold, so numb
Lie there all alone
So red, so hurt, such scars
A will to want what痴 best
A bruise so old, so thick
Can I paint a picture for you today?

This shade of ordinary burns my eyes
simplicity, i despise
in simplicity i'm disguised.

if i stop myself before loving again, am i stopping myself from the greater pain as well..or only causing more of it?

I have to say this is one of your best imagery poems.
A good theme too.
