Red canvas

The silver catches the light, the edges piercing the skin
How can I stop if I can't battle the Demons within?
The porcelain canvas now painted red,
The pain is numbing as I'm already dead.
They tell a story, each mark represents a chapter
But the book is unfinished, I don't know why, Unsure to the answer.
The thought off death isn't as scary as most think,
As I'm scared off drowning, and I'm beginning to sink.
The pain consumes me, life killing me slowly
The future is no longer, as I can no longer be me.
The canvas is full and I've stopped fearing death,
And this is where it ends and I take my last breath.

Thankyou, poetry, for me, is a way to understand my history, a way to move on. I've put it out there for people to see they're not alone in what they are going through.
