Driven

Contributed by Etah on Thursday, 9th October 2003 @ 05:25:11 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



I cut myself today
I知 alive because it hurt
I知 slowly losing all my senses
I had to feel alert

I just had to feel alive
I had to feel the pain
But the thing that hurts the most is
I know I値l bleed again

I値l never tell my friends
Because then they値l know too much
There痴 no one I知 that close to
No one I can trust

I have no solution
I know no cure
As blood distracts my helpless mind
I know I致e been here before

It helps for a while
It helps for a day
Pain replaces all my feelings
Lets them fade away

Tomorrow brings the scars
Tomorrow brings the healing
The emptiness creeps in again
Until that痴 all I知 feeling

dear Etah,
to have someone close
takes some time
to have someone to who tell all
needs to be brave and trust
if you were hurt
no wonders you canエt
but I can swear
also hurt was I
forgive, cos you get it back
recieve what is directed to you straight
do not stay in loneliness and pain
it is not for life
please do not hurt yourself
trust, and you will find:-) aika:-)

wow this all hit me so hard. I had to feel alive, I had to feel the pain are two lines that I absolutely love. I'm glad u found this site, this site is probably one of the reasons why I'm still here. I hope writing helps you and i hope ufind a few friends to open up to whether in real life or on the internet. Keep on writing this poem was POWERFUL.

On the note of sounding cliche` I'm asking you to hold on. I lost a friend over this and I never understood why he did it or what ran through his mind but reading your poem opened up that door, let me inside. I am glad you found this site.
