I'm in a downward spiral,
falling faster with each passing second.
Blood mixes with salty tears streaming
down my face.
Finding its resting place on my already
bloodied razor.
A broken mirror lays upon the floor.
Each shattered piece reflecting traces
of sunlight.
Rose petals surround these crystal pieces,
trying to cover up the damage that
has been done.
But not even the softest of flowers
can repair this
broken mirror.

This broken image.

I have never "Cut" or anything, but I really like the way you describe this. This is one of those poems that is truly great because it conveys your feelings in a way that allows the reader to feel as though they are sitting right there watching your struggle. Excellent!
