So many scars I have to hide
How many times do I have to lie
How many times do I have to reply,
In the same monatone voice and say that I am fine
Now I am broken but you'll never see
Because all the things you've done to me
Why is it wrong to express how I feel?
Sliced up and bloody
Leaving my body to deal
Why can't I be proud of the marks on my arm?
Why do you have to tell me how I should feel?
Leave me alone and you will see,
That I am more sane than you'll ever be
So why is it so wrong to express how I feel?
This is just me so you'll have to deal. [comments] => 5 [counter] => 264 [topic] => 48 [informant] => bluestar [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 9 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

What a lucid way of expressing your thoughts! I can feel your anguish resonating through your words. It's a very well-written piece.

I hope that you get to talk about your feelings with someone. May you find peace of mind.

Made me think of a friend whose been in a dark place, he hides his scars too. A thought invoking piece, don't change it at others advice; it's a work completely of your own. I'm going to phone my friend now, see how he is... hope you're ok, merry christmas and a happy new year,

Yeah people always used to give me crap for it too, I say screw'em! They aren't me, they don't understand, this is how I deal. If they really are your friends they will love you anyway and try to help you make it through.
I guess I mostly grew out of my cutting stage, though I can't say I've abandoned this demon completley.Everyone has their on way, yes you're right your just as sane as anyone else.
Well good luck,
K

I know what you mean. They all tell me how I should feel and that I shouldn't be doing that (cuttin). I tell them fine if I must listen to you but u see i dont have to listen to you. They look at me and say ur one insane chic i tell them I'm more sane then they'll ever be. I relate to this so much and it's a extremely good poem. Keep up the good work
