Content warning: The following piece contains 

references to self harm. 
 

Red

Black and white,

that's all I see.

A blade set forth in my hand.

Do I dare cut?

I wanna see color,

so I do. 

Red

divulged from the line in my greyed flesh.

An inhale, eyeing my primary color

An exhale once it's done.
