Stop this today

by Anna   Sep 28, 2005


I was given therapy
for all the badness inside of me
I was helped to sort out my life
given a chance to talk
steared away from the knife
but suddenly now I feel so down
my face feels heavy beneath my frown
My arm is sore, still in pain
I used my lighter to burn myself again
And the guilt I hide
mask it over with pride
As my sleeves get longer
The depression gets stronger
I feel myself sinking again
As inside I hide such pain
I have to find the strength to fight
I won't burn myself in bed at night
I won't slice my wrists or up my arm
The hate in me comes out as self harm
Let me fight this thing, let me be ok
I hope I find the strength, stop this today

    I can really relate to this poem. When i've been really depressed and i talk to someone about it, they make me feel better but then after they go i end up feeling depressed again and i feel like they just wasted their time on me. But anyway your poem was really good and you should always remember that however hard your life might get you'll always have someone to help you out. Stay strong and keep writing xxx
