Last Night

by Torn   Nov 9, 2005


I cut last night,
Nice and deep.
It had been so long,
But I was so weak.

Everything was going wrong,
And I thought of my best friend.
Hoping she could be there,
My broken heart she would mend.

But she's not around,
And I've lost my way.
Scared that another,
Had gone astray.

I pushed her away,
And I needed her most.
The things I do,
I definitely can't boast.

My father was suicidal,
My mother was angry at me.
All the hatred I felt,
I just didn't want to be.

I thought seriously about leaving,
Because this life is nothing.
But when I tried to do it,
I felt I didn't have to be suffering.

Now I only feel shame,
Of the pain I made myself feel.
This scar will cause many more,
And time that I don't have to heal.

So please if you're out there,
Take my pain away.
Please tell me things will be ok,
Please tell me you will stay.

I'm sorry for this cut,
For I know you will break down.
I can't believe I did it,
I didn't mean to make you frown.

I'm so sorry for being me,
This is my fault I know.
This black is engulfing me,
I need something to see me through.

*the shame and guilt i feel right now is unexplainable. I seriously hadn't cut for months...i hate myself for falling so low again.
Just a really bad night i guess..
please comment and rate xoxox

    Hey hun
    I cant say I know how you feel, because I am not you. But I can relate to it. Ive been cutting for 4 years, and its so hard. I always say I'll stop. But.. its what I know and how U deal with it. The reason Im here today, is because I know theres people I'd be hurting if I left..
