The Depth of My Soul…

My soul is a shut door that must never be open.

                      It must stay closed.

       I seclude my soul so no pain will show.

       I numb my soul with silence and blood.

            Nobody will ever pain within me.

                           If they ever did,

                 They would pass brutal judgement,

                 But they will never see that.

                  I only put pain on my skin

              So i escape the pain deep within.
