Sometimes...

by Kota the Unheard   Nov 1, 2015


Sometimes I want to bleed,
To feel the red running down my flesh
Sometimes I want to bleed,
Because I already feel dead

Sometimes I want to bleed
Let the razor sing her sharpened symphony
Sometimes I want to bleed,
To feel my last breath leaving me

Sometimes I want to bleed,
So I force myself to carve
Sometimes I want to bleed,
My brain Oxygen starved

Sometimes I want to bleed
And feel my life slip away
Sometimes I want to bleed,
Take me to a better place

Today, I bleed for you...

    I like this because it may be raw but it has been written perfectly. There's no need for rhythm all the time in my opinion and I am jot going to tell you self harm isn't he answer because some of us when in self destruct mode will do anything whether it be with a knife, alcohol or other stuff and we don't need people to think they understand but we need understanding; if that makes sense.

    I love this. The only thing that threw me off, was the fact that flesh and dead didn't rhyme, neither did away and place, so the flow was a little off. But otherwise, just loved it. 5/5

      Honestly when I wrote this I wasn't focused on the rhythm or flow. But thanks.

    Let me tell you, self-harm is not the answer even if it feels like it in the moment. It will only cause more pain and will not solve the hurt deep down. You can make it through this, through this pain. There is hope and help.

    My heart goes out to you. Please don't be afraid to reach out, sometimes our mind can trap us and we can be tempted to do anything to end the pain or seemingly hopelessness of our situation. But there's always hope as my mom often reminds me.

    Take care.

      I know its not the answer but at the time it was my path. Yes I know there is help and hope and I have got help. Doesn't help though but I have stopped for a few months now. Only because I cant let my sister see me like this. Thanks for what you said though.

    A dark heartfelt poem you have written here.
    I hope your life so far isn't as bad as your feelings that you express in your write?
    Your poem was powerful, made me sit up and take notice. Every word you wrote seemed to shout out a rage of sorts against the world.
    I hope that you don't self harm, life will get better believe me. Just stay with it, ok?
    You'll see.
    A great write Kota. Enjoyed your poem!

      Thanks. Its honestly funny when you think about it though. Most people tend not to notice anything like this until its put in their face. Until then people just keep walking. And I haven't self harmed in a few months so I'm working on it though. Thanks though.
