Cutting Herself

by BeautifulDisaster   Jan 5, 2007


Every night
before she lays her head to rest
she lies on the bathroom floor
cutting herself
she thinks it makes all the pain go away
but all it does
is pile the pain on top of her
so every night
before she lays her head to rest
she lies on the bathroom floor
slicing her skin
just to keep the pain away
or so she thinks
for the pain will return tomorrow
she doesnt understand
every night
before she lays her head to rest
she lies on the bathroom floor
cutting herself
watching the blood run down her arms

    I don't know if you actually cut yourself, but from experience and reading, its more of a mental thing. The way you describe it, it seems as though its just a physical way to rebel, when in fact its not a ritual its triggered by emotional pain but not as simple as "makes all the pain go away". I think this poem has great potenial if you revise it a bit and add some metaphic qualities and such.
