Twelve Little Cuts

Contributed by pUnKa_RaCh on Thursday, 23rd June 2005 @ 08:58:38 PM in AEST
Topic: self-harmpoetry



One thing tells my story
Not the look upon my face
Nor the poetry I pen
These things elude no grace

They are eternal
A dark sight only I have seen
For they cause me much shame
Of despaired places I have been

For my twelve little cuts
That are mine, and mine alone
Are still bloody and gruesome
From unhappiness that has grown

Appearing raw and uninviting
But so warm, and familiar to me
Such temporary pleasure
That deceive my mind with glee

My decoy for heartache
My evil that seems constructive
An unclean sin that is my own
I know this is self- destructive

These twelve little cuts
Are symbols of my pain
That forever rest upon my thigh
Small scars that will remain

Your poem was written very well
I only wish I had only twelve
I was stupid and carved up both my arms
The last time i did it was a year and half
But even though I feel Im somewhat cured
I cannot always hide my scars and people think Im weird
They will never understand that at the time a lot of help comes out of self inflicting that little bit of pain. i do wish now though that id dealt with my pain another way, Because my angry scars are here to stay. Know that you'r not alone and if you must continue to cut, keep it in those hidden places.
