Deep

by Fear2love   Nov 20, 2009


The deeper I cut
the more I forget
forgotten by most
loved by pain

the deeper I cut
the less human I become
label an alien by most
adored by blaming myself
for all my flaws

the deeper I cut
the more I fade away
slipping away from reality
seeing the worst part of me

the deeper I dig
the more selfish I become
nothing more to this earth
than a twig
outcast since birth

the deeper
the better...

    Many people suffer from self-harm, using it as a release the emotions they hold inside.

    "nothing more to this earth
    than a twig
    outcast since birth"

    -wow!!! I love that metaphor!

    "the deeper i cut the less become human"

    ^ I would change the above line to

    "The deeper I cut the less human I become"

    Apart from that one line you have an excellent poem

    5/5

    Good job. this was heartbreaking and i don't even know what to say. my favorite line was "loved by pain" it's like pain always finds you, and there's no running away from it. keep it up because this was really deep. :) would you please rrc "put to rest"?
