Happiness glides across the skin,
a crimson pool gathers in its wake.
I smile as I am flooded over-
With euphoria running through my veins.
It lifts up- happiness is gone.
But then! OH! But then! It comes back down!
Time and time again,
Happiness will leave its marks-
Marks upon marks,
creating lace of the body.
For now it is worth it,
I do not care about the marks,
I simply want the high that it gives.
For it is grand!

It’s been a long time my dear blade,
so long since I felt your loving sting.
The scars you left behind,
I cannot stand to see them.
How could leave me?
So broken up inside.
I tried to call you back,
but could not find the strength.
Now you are gone from me,
and I am gone
emotionally
I came at this from two different perspectives. One of them is very literal, while the other is figurative. Please, let me know is the figurative perspective comes through.
