The mind works in mysterious ways You can be asleep and yet be wide awake Your subconscious coming alive As your consciousness ebbs away My subconscious doesn't seem to like me She tells me time and time again How much it word be her joy To rip me apart Destroy my body Kill me Every night as I drift into the dark abyss of sleep She rears her head Takes over my mind and body Pushing me urging me to annihilate myself This night however is different Tonight I try to fight back But the mind is weak The subconscious is more powerful than we can ever imagine She walks me to the kitchen It looks rather ominous at night Akin to an unfamiliar territory But subconsciously I can navigate it with ease Curse that subconscious b!$%h I am forced to approach my set of knives An aura of evil seems to surround them I try earnestly to regain control but to no avail She triumphs once again I grip the knife and remove it from its housing The blade honed to a deadly point gleaming in the midnight moon The creatures of the night seem to have sensed my impending doom The tempo and volume of the sounds crescendo They peak and then wither out to slow steady beat The knife edges towards my wrist Slowly I drag it across my flesh It slides thru with ease I feel nothing but a fleeting sense of relief And then the pain slowly leaks Into me The thin line of red slowly appears And I slice my wrist yet again And again the pain sneaks upon me It suddenly doesn't feel so bad The pain is like a drug Shooting into my system Like my special brand of drug I'm happy Suddenly I don't mind that the b!$%h is out to get me I dare her to do it again And that she does Over and over again Cutting these wounds into my skin Mutilating my flesh I cry in pain but also in exstacy Blissfully sitting on the kitchen floor in my own *la*hd Smiling inside and out But after awhile the pain is just not enough I look around for something else to wound myself with but I find nothing Curse me and my cautious ways I turn back to the knife The source of my pleasure I immediately have the urge to be a surgeon I force the knife into my chest Twisting and turning it in Slicing my self into euphoria I'm on cloud nine And my subconscious suddenly doesn't want to play anymore She sees what is about to take place and she becomes frightened She tries to talk to me urging me to cease But I tune her out Continuously removing the knife and plunging it back inside of me It feels so good I feel like I'm on the verge of winning this war I've regained control of my body But I no longer wish to stop I feel happier than I've ever felt in all my life I see the finish line ahead and proceed with my final move I tell the b!$%h I'm going to remove her from my head once and for all She screams in terror Frantically trying to take control But to no avail The pain has made me strong and my subconscious weak I run the knife around the top of my head The scalp has to go But alas I'm met with my skull My heart plunges What can I do now She remains within me I search the kitchen again I find hidden at the back of my cupboard an axe I'm elated She screams at me again I slam the axe into my head This time her screams are of pain and anguish Every time she screams I plunge the axe further I feel myself drifting away as if some weight was leaving my body And I could finally sleep I plunge it in one final time and her voice ceases I am finally happy It hurts so bad but the pain as well dwindles away into nothingness I am free from her dark embrace........
