A way to get them out,
My feelings that have trap me,
But have made me who I am,

I found my vent,
A small, sharp blade,
To cut and drain my dirty blood,
Blood that has curdled in pain,

I found my vent,
Its helps me to live,
Giving me one more chance,
To break from this cycle,

I found my vent,
It seems to scar,
Deep purple lines stained,
Reminding me of the past,

I found my vent,
Its my way out,
A loop-hole in this life,
But why do I deserve it?

I self mutilate too and I wouldnt say that its forced upon me, or inevitable as your sort of saying here.
This is written with feeling

I dunno what to tell you, hun. I cut, I'm trying not to do it too much. I know it's tough, just try to write and write so it'll keep your hands busy and express emotion. See how long you can hold out w/o picking up the blade. Just see if you can wait out the urges and think, how will this benefit me in the future? What will I have gained? A bunch of scars you're always going to have to cover w/ sleeves or whatever. Just try to wait it out and write. It was a really good poem. I really felt it.

What is it with the self cutting? Didn't realize that this was
such a big thing. Is there a club?

I had a stormy period when my first marriage broke up and I
had a lot of rage. I got in a lot of fights; things that I'd generally
let slide on other occasions would send me into a rage and
the fists would be flying. I guess that's sort of a self destructive
reflex. only I worked my way through it before I got seriously hurt,
or seriously hurt anyone else.

I discovered hookers!
