Cutting

by cant sleep   Jun 20, 2005


Cutting for the sake of cutting
just to feel the pain
knowing I've nothing to lose
and nothing more to gain

inside so many feelings
that never are revealed
i hold them down inside of me
my lips remain sealed.

i wish that i could tell someone
but no one seems to care
and every time i look around
no one is ever there

i have tried to tell them time and time,
tell them how i feel.
but they never take me seriously,
to them my feelings are not real

i sit alone and cry at night
just me, myself and i
knowing nothing in life is right
no matter how hard i try

i look into the mirror
and i hate what i see.
after a while,
i start to hate me.

i hate what i've been doing
hate looking at the blade
this will become an aweful memory
one i will want to fade

i used to be so different
but something in me has changed
something that i can't control
that is making me act strange

i have done such stupid things
things that i regret
but no matter what i try
i cannot forget

its like I am having a big bad dream
one that never ends
its like I am living in a life,
and living without friends.

how could this happen to me?
could all this shit be true?
will everything turn out alright,
and will i make it through?

the answers to my questions
i may never find
but ill continue searching
searching through my mind.

    Wow... um, i dont know what to say. i mean, its a good poem and all, amazing rhymes, but reading this knowing that you wrote it really scares me. im not sure who it directed to, but im sorry if i ever made you feel like im not there to talk or i dont care, because thats not how i feel at all. i want you to know you can always talk to me if something is going on and i will try my hardest to find something, anything that i can do about it. please, if you ever feel like cutting, please call me or something, i dont care what you do or when, as long as it keeps you from hurting yourself. you could at one in the morning, i dont care. i wont get in trouble, so dont worry about it. just please, if you ever feel like cutting, please try to stop by talking to me or someone else, i dont care. just please find something that will help you stop.
