Dripping red blood
from her pale wrist she cut deeply.
Dripping red blood
screams her pain she kept hidden, locked.
She relish the pain silently,
her final seconds end slowly—
dripping red blood.

The Rondelet is a relatively short poem using the entire opening line as its refrain. It is French in origin, another member of the 13th century Rondeau Family of Forms which is defined by its use of the rentrement.
The Rondelet is:
- a heptastich, a poem in 7 lines.
- in French syllabic. Syllable count per line are 4-8-4-8-8-8-4 In English tends to be iambic in pattern.
- composed with a rentrement, in the Rondelet the entire L1 is repeated as refrain in L3 and L7.
- rhymed. Rhyme scheme interlocks between the refrain AbAabbA.
Oh my a very bloody poem for OctPoWRiMo 😉

The blood comes across as the main character in this drama. Strong and scary. I’ve not read Stephen King, sister. And now I don’t think I have to!

Scary. Very visual but as think you describe how it would be. So unfortunate she had no one to stop her, but sometimes whatever you say, it’s not enough if someone truly wants to end it all 😦
