blank my mind
my heart
my body
make me numb
[again]
push the tears from my eyes
the pain from my heart
ignore the sense of
[loss]
drag my wrist
pressed against the desk
[numb]
back and forth
back and forth
[don't feel a thing]
rid my self
of thoughts of you
[swollen knuckles]
stop the trembling
dream of razors
and blood
that giv eme back
[my control]
the way i learned
[arn't you proud of me?]
to put away my anger
my pain
my sorrow
in a little bitty box
[like the one my mother is in]
bury
bury
deep inside
where prying fingers
are unable to reach
where nothing
is able to
[escape]
through a window
a broken window
[blood is that blood?]
press my back to the shattered glass
as i am climbing through
feel the release
the emotion
flying
flying
down to the ground
[still]
dirty again
[but i always was]
bleeding into the ground
giving life away
[smiling]
baby nephew
tiny
starving
screaming
[save me]
trembling
help me
rambling
[you don't understand]
i try to forget you
and your
[swollen knuckles]
you're a self-harmer
just.like.me.
[{hypocricy}]

Your style is very unique. I really like it.
As for the poem itself... wow. The emotions were conveyed so strongly I just... It took me back to time when i made some bad choices and did some stupid things. This poem hit me to say the least.
