Trimming the flesh and the fat,
Removing all that I no longer need,
Peeling away the skin,
Discarding my tissue, making me bleed,
Carving away the inadequacies,
At one with the fear and the pain,
Breaking the bones that have carried me,
Into the depths of the dark and insane,
Incising emotions to hollow within,
Their purpose no longer served,
Compassion, kindness and empathy
First of many to be purged,
Black sky above, cold earth below,
The warmth of light I’ll no more know,
Burning the neurons, no need to feel,
Dehumanise me, these wounds will not heal,
Final acceptance of worthlessness,
All good within me now laid to rest,
Black sky above, cold earth below,
The warmth of light I’ll no more know,
Trimming the flesh and the fat,
Removing all that I no longer need,
Peeling away the skin,
Discarding my tissue, making me bleed,
Carving away the inadequacies,
At one with the fear and the pain,
Breaking the bones that have carried me,
Into the depths of the dark and insane,
Burning the neurons, no need to feel,
Dehumanise me, these wounds will not heal,
Final acceptance of worthlessness,
All good within me now laid to rest,
