I tried stabbing my hand.

It didn't work as well as I hoped, but there was a small speck of blood.

That isn't enough. I need more.

I settled with putting a few cuts all over my hand.

But they won't bleed! What a ripoff.

Knives are useless. At least, that one is.

Maybe a sharper one will work better.

Maybe it'll give me what I need.

What I deserve.

What I want.

Blood.

Pain and blood.

Red blood.

So much blood it makes my hand covered in it and starts dripping down.

That's what I need.

That's what I want.

So why?

Why can't I get that?
