Array ( [sid] => 58810 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => What am i to you? [time] => 2004-08-04 04:01:16 [hometext] => [bodytext] => When you look at me what do you see?

Do you see a lonely girl sitting off to the side?

Or a rebel waiting to break the rules

Do you see the scars upon my flesh?

Or the ones inside of my body

Can you really see what I have gone through?

Or lived through?

Do you understand why I punish my self?

Why I like to cut jagged red lines into my skin

I feel like a puppet chained down

Tied to many stings that control my body

This is the only way I have my freedom

The only way I control what happens in my life

Can you see the tears that fall from my blue eyes?

See what I live through

The pain and sadness

The cry of suicide is in my minds eye

But I ignore it for I don’t want to die

I just need to feel

Feel the pain inside of me be set free

Be released

So there is no more

I am a sinner in god’s eyes

What I do breaks his heart

I can’t be perfect any longer

I used to be when I was younger

But now im nothing

The media has thin big-breasted women all over

But what about us fat girls hmm?

Do we not get respect any longer?

When you walk into a store and try on your XL shirt

And it doesn’t fit you feel like *****

You must force yourself to throw up your food

Or just not eat

Go on a diet for the rest of your life

Isn’t it better to have a girl be all different sizes?

Than all the same?

I cut to make things better.

At the time it feels great

Then after im finished I feel the shame and guilt

The pain re rise

Then I see my fat thighs and I wonder will I ever be free?

Ever have my life back.

This self-mutilation is ruining my life

Can’t you see what im living?

Im Living a Hellhole life

But when I started my cutting I learnt that it made things better

It’s a stress reliever apparently

But if you’re a cutter then you’ll know what I mean

How it takes control

Worse then drugs

It’s the worse addiction

Just feeling that blade across your skin

And when you start to bleed

You feel the rush inside

The adrenaline rush that you depend on

It’s all just to feel

Just to take away the pain inside

But it’s not that easy anymore

You’re addicted to a worse drug then cocaine

Addicted to the myth that cutting will make everything better

Addicted to the rushes and taste of your blood

The lies in the world that they tell you your fine

Well maybe to that person but what about the other million people

What do they see when they walk past you

Do they think you’re beautiful or ugly?

What are they thinking?

You spend hours trying to figure it all out

When you’re sick and tired you cut just to feel that release

But you don’t feel it anymore

So you keep cutting deeper till more blood comes in a flood

But your skin is so scared that there is hardly any new skin patch for scarring

Some people press harder on their tough skin

It’s so tough you could stab your skin up and no blood would appear

See not many people could understand the ***** that I go through

So inless you expeirnce this awful repetitive cycle

Don’t judge me

It’s like anorexia bulimia and other addictions

So repetitive you can’t control it

But you think you can but you really cant

There not much you can do

You see your counselors and they seem concerned

But are they really do they really care?
