Oh, Monique...This poem is so beautiful..and so disgustingly relatable. i love it.

Mommy you never saw how FREAKING hard I tried to meet your expectations!
I even went so far as trying to slit my own wrists!

^^ this is so relatable.

truth be told, hun...we're never going to live up to THEIR expectations. so why not live up to our own? just a thought. it's a beautiful poem...great job,

Beautiful. I am trying not to cut. it's s hard. so now i drink more wine 5/5

Hey,
I thought i'd return the favour of your comments. Wow, i could have related to this about 4 years ago, i thought my mum was turning her back on me when i was cutting, i thought she never cared when in reality she wanted me to turn around & ask for her help. She's not perfect & neither am I... It's not worth trying to live up to others expectations because they will 99% of the time be unreachable & we'll just keep getting hurt.

It was really well written. =]

Really good. and i can so relate to it. 5/5

I can relate to this so very much. :\ It's so sad.. If you ever need to talk I'm here. :]] Just PM me, and I'd be happy to listen and try to help you out.
