Never deep enough to scar..
barely deep enough to bleed.
Just enough to feel the pain.
I can stop whenever I want.
I don't need anyone's help.
Denial.
This is your fault.
Your the one that does this to me..
you cause the pain in my life..
Anger.
I swear I'll try harder,
and I won't give in..
I'll do better in school,
and be a good person.
Bargain.
I'm a cutter.
Acceptance.

Author notes
Its a grief cycle.
Missing some of the steps..
I guess Writers block is slowly leaving..
seaping out of my brain..
and thought is slowly
oh so slowly making its way back up
my spine and into my ears..
which in turn will lead to my brain.

Cutting is no joking or laughing matter and my prayers do go out to those that cutt, to give them the curage and strengh to stop

This poem really hits home, my daughter was a cutter when she was 15 yrs old, it helps me to understand why she had that need, as far as I know she has stopped the cutting but remembering that time is a very scarey time for me, I felt like my hands were tied and nothing I did or could do would change those things that caused her to cut in the first place, she still holds lots of anger inside her, and I still worry that she is fine, awesome write and very powerfull, good luck in winning

cutter huh sounds like your emo to me lol wanna hear a joke.... oh wait nvm mind don't the emo they go home and cut themselfs lol

I am just messin with you I like this I do it is very smooth good job thanks for entering Very disturbing really lol -
A short write, but very powerful. The way you wrote this is somewhat beautifully disturbing. This is something that many people go through, but you have writen upon it so differently, short but emotional.
awesome work. I could read it again and again.
All the best
