Tara... ??? Don't Care Do You?

Contributed by deathdrop on Wednesday, 5th May 2004 @ 11:00:55 AM in AEST
Topic: Suicide



I wouldn’t say don’t do it,
Just coz I want to.
Do you know how much it hurts Tara?
NO, SEE, YOU DON’T!

Do you know what I am?
I’m a slasher, THAT’S JUST ME.
Self-harm is my world.
Or even self-injury!

I cut through my skin.
To get out the pain.
Its scard me!
Left its stains…

You use drugs,
They’re mucking up your head!
Self-destroy IS NO GAME!!
Both can leave you dead!

I tried to help you,
Only to be rejected.
I wanted to help you out!
You’ve pulled me down, infected.

Today, you did little scratches with staples.
Left your lines right down your wrist.
This ain’t a game, it’ll grow to something.
That’s impossible to miss.

And I said it for once!
And you looked straight through me,
Laughing like you didn’t care!
Now I have broken to pieces.
I’d rather be dead, than live here!

Then you showed it off to loads of people.
You were laughing, ignoring me.
I feel crushed; I still hear your echoes.
Bubbling inside of me.

Then Clare and Hannah came over.
You showed it to them too.
Said you’d done it to your-self.
I snapped in two…

You told them what I’d said,
About how addiction grows.
Hannah knows I do it.
But Clare smiled too…

I started crying.
It just starting coming out!
My face went pale.
I’m aching now.
I can’t get out…

I just went,
Couldn’t hang round.
Where’s the point?
They make me feel down!

See, Tara, doesn’t know,
What I do.
Tara’s just Tara.
She makes me broken too.
This is what I am!
I can’t change that.
But Tara’s got a choice,
Coz she’s not addicted yet.
Why should I let her muck up, her-self more?
She thinks it’s just a joke.
Self-harm isn’t a lullaby!
It can grow like her addiction for ‘coke’!!!!!!!!
