Thinking about the blades in my pocket.
The doctors say it’s only a faze.
They say “take your pills, you’ll get better”
I say “***** life, ***** the civic center,
I wish I were one of those people who died that day”.
How’d they get so lucky? What else can I say?
I can barely make out a smile a day.
How will I ever be normal again?
I’m sorry Dad not everything’s ok.
I can’t be your perfect little girl
Things changed my lives in a whirl.
I’m sorry I pushed everyone away.
These days it just seems no one wants to stay.
I’m alone in the world no one cares,
I hate this world, life’s unfair.
I shy away from love, I shy away from you.
I shy away from everything I ever thought was true.
You were my best friend; I thought it would never end.
But here I am pushing you away.
What’s gotten into me?
Why am I acting this way?

Wow what a powerful write this was. It was sad but it was very powerful. You could really feel the pain and the questions in this write, lost not knowing were to turn or were to run to. Just run away from everything is sometimes the only answer one can find. I wish the best to you and hope that you can work through this pain in your life. You have knew friends here that you can always talk to if you need to. Take care and keep writing these outstanding pieces of work…..Steve

Its just a suggestion . However it sounds like Volunteering may be an answer . Perhaps a Hospital in a childrens ward. Then you can a appreaciate what you already have and feel that you are making a difference to someone. I can relate to what you wrote but ggee try it and see. Wishing ya well Peace

Geez, Kate, this hurt to read - and I'm not referring to your abilty as a poet, just your raw pain and confusion about why you feel this way. I won't counsel you that this is a phase, or that you should find other diversions or committments- this is your life and where you are right now. Anyway, keep the knife in the pocket, and the pen to the page, because this stuff's good.
