Array ( [sid] => 97216 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => red [time] => 2005-06-07 18:57:51 [hometext] => please please PLEASE comment. i need help............... ~jennie* [bodytext] => a way of release
a sense of control
with steady hand
the blood i stole
pain in the cut
not in the heart
give me the knife
tear skin apart
fear not the blood
nor the red scar
cant fear what was
just how things are

red on my hands
red on my fists
red on the carpet
red on my wrists

a careful slice
a habit of old
brings memories back
makes me go cold
bloodied and bruised
by my own hand
a way of life
you dont understand
a way of release
a sense of control
an empty cut
suddenly full
come my own blood
come fill me up
emotion of red
flow through the cut

red on my hands
red on my fists
red my heart
red on my wrists

Don't wast time if you really need help seek it.
Turn yourself over to social services.a hospital.minister,priest or even police.
Let them know you need help.

Your poem was good,but if true it is frightning.

Help you need, a friend you need more. Let them take away your pain and your grief, for if they are truly your friend they would do it anyway. Do not abuse yourself, there is nothing warranting that. Things always get better before the end, i promise you. If you need someone to talk to i am here for that but you should also look into getting some REAL help.

Hugs,
-Seth

Hey, Jennie. What can I say that doesn't sound trite? No, I know I don't understand yiur situation, never having lived your life. I do understand that things have gone downhill as of late and that would bother anyone. You need control, your poem expresses that eloquently, along with release, but is there no other way? You're such a smart kid, you can find a way, right!
