Self Injury

Sometimes when I'm all alone,
And nobody can hear my cries,
I want to cut my flesh to the bone
And think about all my lies.
I'm trying my best, I say to you,
But don't know if my best is enough to get me through.
As I sit here, and watch what I do
I'm wishing the red would simply turn blue.
For then It would truly show what I feel,
Sad, and alone, and totally unreal.
I want you here, right by my side
I need you here for all of my life.
Yet alas, you are there, and far from me
I cannot helf myself, I begin to bleed.
The coolness brings hope, shows I'm alive
I still try to stop, God knows how I've tried.
My head won't stop pounding, it's getting so loud
But when I'm with you, you drown out the crowd.
My heart is pounding, it's begining to hurt
But when you are here, I know that's abusrd.
I want you to hold me, tell me I'm ok
Show me I'm loved, help me live today.
This is so hard, much harder that I thought
As I hide the cut, I fear of being caught.
For I know this will pain you, make you feel sorrow
But my vow will be; not to cut myself tomorrow.
I'm trying my love, honest I am
Sometimes I hurt and don't give a damn.
Please understand that this is something I cannot control
Like an object in motion, forever I roll.
Do not fear, my love, I know I have this dilema
And I'm getting help form people so I won't be like this forever.
They give it a name,
What I hide under these sleeves,
This problem I have is,
Self Injury.

wow honestly that is all i can think of you have taken the true of it and put it into poetry. I have tried and it hasn't done it justice. But you poem truely has and i thank you for that.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
