Reason to die

by Jenie   May 30, 2007


Why cant i stop this
my blade-my only friend
i want to quit the habit
it needs to end!

it takes over my life
only harm it brings
damn this knife
and sensation that stings

i want to move on
and learn to cope on my own
the blade makes me so upset
leaving me all alone

i cry when i use it
i want to scream, F**K NO!
i just cant
and the blood goes to show

i hate the scars
and behind my back,what people say
i damn this blade to hell
i just want it to go away!

the blood gives me a guilt trip
so like always, i regret what i did
3 years later- i still cover it up
the sleeves kept them hid

i always let my boyfriend down
i promised to do it no more
but then he looks at my arm
1 slice..2 slice..3 slice..4

my mama and dad so disappointed
shamed of what i do
"stop this nonsense
W.T.F is the matter with you!?"

i need to learn to stop
because i am living a lie
i cant let it rule my life
i don't it to be the reason i die

    I think the last line should say i don't want it to be the reason i die, but other than that i think that it is really good. I used to cut too, but i don't anymore. I could never describe it the way you did. Good job, 5/5
