i stand here
hurting badly,hating my life
a tear slides down my face
as a million have before
i look at the reflection
staring at me in the mirror
all i feel is hate,no mercy
i hold the knife at a perfect angle
up against my wrist & breathe deeply
i think back on it all
and i think of how miserable i am
i move the blade swiftly across my wrist
and hundreds of crimson dots slid down my arm
shock hits me, but so does relief
praying for death, i watch my anger
sliding with fury against my pale skin

The poem lacks imagination, especially for a very touchy subject. I know you’re probably a novice. You need to develop your English skills furthermore, so people will respect your work more. The ‘crimson droplets’ or the crimson something a rather is getting too over used. You need to develop your own style, and not care for what anyone else is writing. Writing about self-harm is very difficult, you should try something easier.
