I need YOU to give me a poem, direct to my boyfriend. He doesn't undersand my needs to cut and he refuses to listen when I try to explain, so I was hoping maybe someone could write a poem good enough for him to really understand. I love him so much and he means the absolute ♥world♥ to me, I just want him to better understand where I'm coming from.
700 points to the gold, 400 to the silver, 200 to the bronze and 2 HM's. I WILL be showing these poems to him. I love you guys, please enter and help!
RULES ADDED:
1.) Make sure its towards a person, SOMEONE, don't just rant. This isn't a "write about cutting in general" contest.
2.) Don't cuss him, he's not for the fault.
3.) Don't lecture ME, I'm not the one misunderstanding a thing here
4.) Try to infuse some imagery, some metaphors, any kind of device
5.) Dirty pretty is allowed
6.) One entry per person.

I might write for this. I think you need someone younger to explain {i've been through more than you tho i bet} okays. :]]

I've talked to people and it seems to be a calming down/lighten up emotional energy thing
It releases endorphins into your bloodstream which make you happy, thats what my friend said (who dosent)
I may try to write later but right now im drained of poetic energy :[ sorry
I hope that this turns out well for you and your boyfriend, and best of luck in the contest -
I meant to say best of luck WITH the contest..

Thanks so much, and you're right, it is the endorphins that do the work, and I even told him that, but I'm hoping he'll understand. I hope you get your poetic energy back! ^_^

im sorry that happened
i know the feeling, i got told i was an idiot by my bf too, and i asked for his support, so that i might not do it, but he just told me i was shit, and people who did it were worthless, so i knwo how you feel and im ehre if you need me *hugs*
stephanie ♥
i hope things get better for you, and that cutting dissolves

I usually want to punch out people who cut because I used to do it as well. I felt that I was being unreasonable and that I was hurting loved ones by doing what I did. Typically, I would never enter a contest like this since it brings up horrible things I'd rather like to forget. I also like to avoid reading poems by people who cut only because it's a fad and they'd like to pretend they have problems.
Lol. Sorry. I'm ranting.
I'm going enter your contest because I think if you read something by someone like myself it may help you relate and it may help me lessen my hate for cutters and confront my own stupidity in the past. Hope I can help in some way. -
so, my boyfriend was pretty much the same way, except he just didn't understand...it really sucks trying to explain something like cutting to someone who has never done it...I'm glad you and him are doing better, I just hope he will soon try to understand :] good luck dear
