here's whar it's like
to feel like i do
youre lucky youre not me
it must be a blessing to be you
your days are filled
with blood, tears, and strife
and you feel as if it will remain this way
for the rest of your unnatural life
the blood of your family
the blood of your friends
but worse is your own
when you touch the blade to your skin
then there are the tears-
of your mother, your sister, your friends
when they realize that you'll never be
that same happy person again
but the worst is the strife
that eats you up inside
making you wish you could be like others;
enthusiastic, happy and kind
there's the strife against your weakness
strife for your soul
strife cuz you know
you'll never again be whole
you feel as if you're forgotten
by mother, by father, by god
and you know that if your peers find out how you feel
they'll only laugh and call you a fraud
so theres what its like
to feel like i do
you're so lucky you're not me
o, it must be a blessing to be you.

Take care
That is reaily sad I have felt bad before but never felt unloved like that. I am sure some one cares and loves you in this great big world I know god does. -
Oh honey If I were close enough to you I would embrace you and wouldnt let you go until I knew you knew you are so loved
I welcome you honey to be mine from now on to know what love truly feels like and how together we can bring the light back into your life indeed. I have never been able to have children and in this I have taken in so many children in my heart forever to help them know sometimes we have to reach beyond the barriers you now live in to find thew happiness you so deserve . Talk to me honey and we can see that place you so long for together . Please honey no more cutting for this would kill me indeed to think my child was hurting themselves for the wanting of love you have always eserved indeed. Feel my embrace and know in this world you will always be mine and know you will find this joy in life just walk with me and together we will embrace life as it should be embraced.
