there's this girl
who I once knew
she cuts her wrist
to just feel alive again
she's felt numb,
for quite a while now
but she didn't tell you
cause she was scared to
you now notice the scars
buried there on her wrist
and you start trying
to ask her why
but all she tells you,
is that its the only way
to have control of all the pain
she feels every day
you tell her,
to open up and talk to you
but all she does
is closes up around you
all she wants,
is to feel alive
so she cuts her wrist
tell they bleed a crimson red
she doesn't want to go on
she wants to end it all
but she doesn't,
only cause of you
you tell her,
to please stop cutting
cause your scared,
you might lose her
but all she tells you,
is she just wants to feel alive
and this is the only way
that she thinks she can
so all you can think to do,
is hug her tightly
telling her that everything
will one day be okay
and she wants to believe you,
she really does
but to be honest
she's really scared to
cause all she's ever known
is putting that cold blade
to her warm skin
and creating those scars
well that girl,
you thought you knew
is slowly falling apart
away from you
she's just saying goodbye
cause she can't deal with,
all this pain,
she feels inside
so goodbye world
cause it was you,
who destroyed,
that little girl, you once knew

Thanks for sharing VICTORIA ~ a chilling poem but in my experience it has a ring of truth. I have known several people who in the end killed themselves (in a variety of ways) ~ JUST TO FEEL ALIVE ! Take care ~ thinking of you 24/7 ~ BRIAN
Thank you BRIAN! I have tried multiple times.. but it failed each time..
This poem gave me the feels. I hope you know that you are a very good poet and you have lots of people that really enjoy reading your poems everyday. And your not alone in this world, I've felt the way your feeling to and there is a way out. I'm here if you need to talk! great poem! ~Bella
Thank you! I have been writing poems for almost a year now and it does help me get a lot of emotions out. I will be posting another one today. I hope that you'll read it.
this is brilliant that's all I'll say'
thank you!
Good write. I experiemced this very thing with my own daughter. I walked through each word written. To cut a wrist is a slash of a soul. Releasing pain on drops of of blood instead of tears. Now my daughter lives a new dream of life ... VICTORIA living through a nightmare with such a great poem to bring here has brought life to many. A true poet envokes emotion you have done this true poet.....GOOD JOB
Thank you so much! I'm doing a lot better. I actually think I might become a poet when I get older. Cutting doesn't always help I found out.. it just creates scars that won't go away..
Poetry knows no age limit. A poets heart is from birth... Again i must say it was well written.
