Did you see the pain in my eyes?
creeping inside of me
becoming
falling
away from me it goes...
Did you see that I was strong?
in every single tear that slipped
overpowering
strengthening
enough to be weak...
Did you see my last resort?
cut away from me
dieing
screaming
yet still no release...
Did you see my body is tainted?
a constant reminder
faded
jaded
the addiction isn't free...
Author notes
When dealing with the temptation to cut, I have to be strong to be weak and give in to just shedding a tear. I've been cut free for two years, but this addiction seems to never go away. It slowly fades like the scars I have. Not a very dark poem, but it's the darkest side of me, constantly tearing me apart.

Well it was dark enough for me. I understand the temptation you have. I even being 12 cut. Deep depression is what caused mine. Getting to the poem this was a great wtire about tempation. I thought it was going to get DQed because it had 40 lines but they're just spaces. Great job and thanks for entering.
