"When you love someone so much"
A girl asked a guy if he thought she was pretty, he said...no. She asked him if he would want to be with her forever....and he said no. She then asked him if she were to leave would he cry, and once again he replied with a no. She had heard enough. As she walked away, tears streaming down her face the boy grabbed her arm and said.... You're not pretty you're beautiful. I dont want to be with you forever. I NEED to be with you forever. And I wouldnt cry if you walked away...I'd die...
"Do you" can't my screams be heard muffled tones through the heating vent whisper about me, I'm sure of it in this one-way microphone just Too bad they're talking about my grades and detentions but not the cuts on my arms or dark circles under my eyes Look look I beg you I'm screaming as loud as I can when my own choked voice makes no sound I'm still screaming Still screaming and wondering when I'll end this horrible waiting game of show, not tell. Do you know what it's like to always be sad to always be gloomy and scared? Do you know what it's like when you run all over the house searching for razors, because your mom stole yours? She thought you were suicidal and she maybe was right can you touch my desperation? rip the pack of blades she hid in her sock drawer behind the condoms she only wishes I wanted Do you know what it's like to not care about tomorrow because you're not planning to be here anyway? You don't know the shatteringly beautiful droplets of your own blood as they slide from skin. You can't. None of the living know.

"Poem by a Cutter" Burning pain in my arms, Stops the burning tears. Slicing the skin calms my doubts, And helps erase my fears. The anger is so strong at times, And my pain becomes too much. And I long to feel the calmness, Of the knife's forgiving, tender touch. As I watch my blood pour, My sanity soars. And I long to feel the pain once more. To those who may not do this, I probably sound insane. But this is the only way I know how... To ease the blinding pain.
