Open Your Heart

by The Flame Within   Jun 24, 2005


Cut your wrist say it makes you feel good

but just because it does, doesn't mean you should

count the scars on your wrist, how many are there?

for every one another piece of my heart starts to tare

pieces of my heart fall to the ground next to your crimson blood

and suddenly my own eyes begin to flood

you hurt me, why did you do that, why did you cut

it hurts every time you do, but this pain comes from what?

i want to help you, my heart aches to make you smile

but your busy cutting your wrist all the while

let me in, open your heart, don't leave me out

hear my voice, listen to me as i begin to shout

don't you dare leave me, and enter the world that is next

don't you get the message from this text

i will make it plain, don't cry, don't cut your wrist

when you do, you put my heart in bliss

i know i cant make you happy, but i can still try

my eyes begin to water as i see you cry

you tell me you want to be dead, with those words you killed my heart

every tear is another piece of my heart torn apart

please don't do this, please be strong

what you are doing to yourself, and to me, is wrong

    Wow...Nick...your comment! So heartfelt, i almost cried. I was so worried about you. You sounded so sad...or upset. Do you really love me? You said it so much, and I wonder if you meant it, but I do love you! I'm just going through some tough stuff right now...I'm at my dad's in FL, Zac has a gf and I could never even compare, even if he loves me. He has to keep me a secret, and I feel like I should be ashamed of myself for loving someone. It's so hard. And then I have the typical family stress and all, but wow....Baby, that comment was so sweet.

    Jami still loves you though. Maybe you should give her another shot??? I don't mean to be like pressuring you, but from one friend to another, you need someone to love you, and she does. You love her too, I know you do. You couldn't hate anyone if you tried, lol. You're too sweet for that. But I love you! I'll ttyl, hopefully.

    Oh....god..I'm so worried for you! I'd hug you right now if I could,...I'm so sorry that I can't. And what you and Zac see in me, or what you think-me as some nice, sweet, girl, I don't want to disappoint you. As a friend, or perhaps simply as a human, I fail at so many things. I don't want to lose you or Zac or anybody for that matter. You all mean the world to me, and I'm sorry if I've ever hurt you, or scared you like I have. I'm just so fragile, so easily broken. And I've been a hassle to Zac on the phone, a bit annoying, or obsessive. He still loves me for some odd...reason, but I don't deserve either one of you. You're the best friend, ever, Nick. Seriously, I don't have a better friend in life than you in the past or now. I know I can trust you with just about anything. You're so amazing, Nick, NEVER forget that!!! I love you, too.
