I lower the razor to my skin, Out goes the emotions that are held within Out flows the blood from the vein, Out flows all the inside pain No one understands perhaps not even me, It’s the light that others believe in that I can not see Everyone asks one thing and that is Why? I’m not sure I say and they know what I say is a lie. I do it to let the pain escape, This can be acomplished with one lil scrape The blood represets the pain inside, The pain that so often I hide Sometimes it’s all about knowing Im alive, Without feeling the pain Im dead inside I have no feelings left, I feel numb, I look at myself and wonder what I have become Perhaps what I’m doing is not all bad, It helps me cope with the non- leaving emotion of being sad Don’t be angry or sad for me, Doing this helps to see the light that I can not see. (this poem is not about suicide it is about Self Injury.... an alternative to suicide) [This message has been edited by Sherri_baby963 (edited 10-17-1999).] |

Sherri, I have a hard time responding to this piece. It is tragic to me that some as talanted to yourself suffers from such pain that they see no other resource than to try to cut it out. Suicide or self injury, neither is an answer. Please e-mail me. ------------------ This is courage...to bear unflinchingly what heaven sends. ~Eurpides |

Sherri, maybe there are no answers, maybe there are, but whenever you'll feel the need to talk about it, or just need a listening ear, please feel free to e-mail me. |
