apex of pain


she said goodbye to me today, 
said that friendship wouldn't be,
she said that i messed up her life, 
she made it clear, though i could't see, 
i'd done no wrong, but when i asked, 
she gave no anwser, just turned her back. 
and stronger, now i feel the pain, 
my life line to the world cut slack.
i looked so hard to see my fault, 
the act that provoked this tragedy, 
but search with vengeance though i might,
the truth of it was hid from me. 
and now i trudge by, day by day,
no point or objective for my life. 
im getting to the apex of most pain, 
i think of the ritual of the knife. 
i wonder now "how bad can it be"
to draw pictures on my arms 
with a blade so sharp, so cold, so harsh
to draw my blood without alarm. 
this fondled thought, though, is just that, 
an idea i play with, just consider,
at this point i don't think i'm strong enough, 
or mad, enraged, fickle, bitter. 
i know i won't go that far,
though it amuses to me to think, 
but silent shadows close in now, 
and i am on the brink
