Array ( [sid] => 156256 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I cut because... [time] => 2009-12-26 12:43:13 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Every cut takes away,
The pain I'm feeling everyday,
I hate myself too much for words,
So many feelings...it's obsurd.

I cut to try to make some sense,
Of why I feel things so intense,
For every drop of blood that falls,
It a brick out of my emotional wall.

I'm sorry that I am this way,
I really don't know what to say,
I cut myself, not because of you,
But because I don't know what else to do.

So Yes...I'm labelled a 'self harmer',
It's all I know that keeps me calmer,
So please don't judge me from my scars,
Each one tells a story from my past.

I gave you five stars as the writing is awesome.
As far as the subject matter I don't know how to react to it. It really grabs a person by the heart. But by the grace of God it could have been me. I would never judge you as I know how it feels to have strong emotions that over whelm a person and being magnafying by the inner pain. All I can say is I'll pray for you.
I take meds that are a God send, called (Zoloft). A dr. can help you get on the right meds so you can cope on a daily basis.
Just try to take one emotion one at a time. With meds I can pretty much get thru it all.
Huggs, blessings, prayer,
emy

Very deep write. Thank you for sharing it, and I hope that you will find some way to get over this rough time. I, myself, used to be in the exact same position and i understand thoroughly what you're going through. If you ever need anyone to talk to i'm here. Keep writing, it may help. :) Best wishes.

I loved your writing. It really gave me a sense of relief to know that not everyone judges merely on the scars they see.
