Divided

Pieces of glass
     lying broken upon the ground
I pick a sliver up
     My finger rests on the edge
Razor sharp, uneven
      waiting to spill blood
Part of me wants to drop it,
       run away from the edge
The other part urges me to slip
      and watch my skin tear
To watch salty tears mix with blood
      as it flows over my heart
How I wish I knew which desire
      will win out
In the end.
