I know I shouldn't do it,
I know that people care,
I know the cuts,
Shouldn't be there.

I know that I feel hopeless,
I know I feel alone,
I know the cuts,
Shouldn't be shown.

I know people think I'm smart,
I know people think I'm beautiful,
But I also know,
The cuts look really cool.

I know that I feel fat,
I know I shouldn't talk like that,
I know the knife and I shouldn't have met,
I know the cuts,
Didn't kill me...

Don't Fret I'm Not Dead...

I know I shouldn't do it,
I know that people care,
I know the cuts,
Shouldn't be there.

I know that I feel hopeless,
I know I feel alone,

I know people think I'm smart,

I know that I feel fat,
I know I shouldn't talk like that,
I know the knife and I shouldn't have met,
I know the cuts,
Didn't kill me...

Yet.

This was an awsome poem, sad though, it portrayed so many feelings and lonliness that comes along with self mutilation. I know the pain you are going through, because I myself am a cutter. If you ever need to talk im here for you! If you would life, you can read some of my poems. Huggs!!

i self-harm, and i used to feel like this... and i know that if you continue, your arms will be as screwed up as mine or possilbly worse, and it later years, you'll regret it when you find people don't understand and are mean towards you.
be strong.
... and i (trust me), i know quiting's NOT easy, so if you can't quit then atleast don't do it deep, 'cuz that way there's a chance of them fading...
may peace be with you.

This is a very strongly worded write Amanda...Very sad. Subject aside, I like the format, and the way the first and last line not only tie in with the prospective lines, but how they tie in with each other as well. As for the topic of cutting...I can only hope you stop hurting yourself before it's too late. No one should feel the need to hurt themselves like that...You seem to be a very smart girl, who writes wonderful poetry, and I think you have a lot to feel special about. Hopefully you'll see that one day when you look in the mirror...Take Care, and if you ever want to talk to someone, feel free to pm me...

Scorp.

"The cuts look really cool." this line irks me because it changed the entire tone of the poem. your ending was powerful. and your repetitions actually worked for this poem. well hopefully they wont kill you yet for a very long time then.

I agree with Jen, the "The cuts look really cool" line is just bothersome to me. As for the rest of your poem, it had a more unique style to it and I like the flow and the rhythm. It's an awesome poem. Brava.
