You'll never understand

Would you like to hear the truth
About what few people know
Why some people cut themselves
And why some go so low

See, you can listen to me
For I happen to know
I used to cut myself
And I have gone that low

I'm sure you've never been so mad
You like to watch yourself bleed
Never been so lonely
Only this fulfills your needs

Have you ever cried yourself to sleep?
Not knowing what to do
The feeling is hard to explain
Unless you've gone through it too

Do you honestly know how it feels
To completely hate how you are
To be ashamed to be yourself
When the truth goes way too far

You've never been so depressed
And not had an answer why
Not knowing why you hate your life
Even more as time goes by

Has more than everything gone wrong
Causing you pain is so many ways
Knowing when you go to sleep
You'll do it again the next day

You've never had enjoyment
From self-inflicted pain
Because you've never done it
So you call us insane

Cutters are stupid
Cutters are dumb
Trade lives with one of us for a day
Watch what you'd become

Don't ever judge us
Don't try to understand
You never will
So don't put us down

You say your too good for that
So you say you never will
But we said it too
And we cut still....

    This poem was so amazing. I related to this alot. I am sick of people jumping to conclusions, and saying that all we want is attention. If they only knew. This is just great. keep writing!
