Nothing Hurts

by Jenni Marie   Jun 30, 2007


If I took a razor to my arm
Slid it slowly across my skin
It wouldn't hurt half as much
As the pain that's felt within

If someone hit me in the face
Hard enough to draw blood
It wouldn't affect me at all
Even though it should

If I yanked out all my hair
To try and show this pain
Wouldn't affect me half as much
As feeling like I'm insane

No, no self inflicted pain can compare
To all the times I've felt like dirt
Seems feeling this has made me numb inside
'Cause no matter what I do, nothing hurts

    This is well written but I don't like it's imagery. Good choice of words but I think you could write better.
    I like the ending but honestly 3/5.
