Control

Always stay in control

The scarlet burns on your skin,

leaving an exotic feeling.

The pain of

regret

loss

and even sacrifice.

Can leave you still on the brink death.

Don't think of it has depression

Think of it differently

Why?

Because you''re differnt 

In your cut  you feel

brave

strong

and even control

You say to yourself

I'm in control, you can't hurt what's already is.

Sounds stupid but true.

You tell yourself

I'm a warrior

leader

innovator

a little monster

a writer

an inspired dancer

dance to own tune 

when there is no music  

Go into the street

start a crowd

get a megaphone

pay for the megaphone

start a war and end it

Create paradise

Create Hell

Get a bandage for that cut.

Because you're in control. 

Author's Note

Be a leader
