I run my fingers over the marked flesh
and shards of glass pierce my chest.
Flashbacks come when razors go,
although they're scars, they hurt me so.
Each pink line has its story,
some are devestating, others boring.
My arms hold the summary of the last three years,
over the time I've shed one million tears.
Things with me just happen fast,
the substances that gave me pleasure
would never last.
So here I am, with my addictions in the past,
my pain slowly melting away
praying it will never come back.

Your imagery is painful, yet stunning
It paints a picture of "been there, done that" and they idea of "I don't wanna return there"
This was an incredible poem

Fell in love with these lines coz they're so true... I think everyone who cuts could relate. -
INCREDIBLE!ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!You are very talented and your writing is so...it's just too good for words!I'd pick some but every positive adjective in the English language couldn't describe good enough just HOW AMAZING you and your poetry both are!Hope you can stay out of the dark world of cutting and substance abuse because I KNOW how bad it is and such a lovely person like you would most definitely be missed and bring the world into a unified state of depression to know you're suffering and hurting yourself...we're connected on an emotional and spritual level so like a ripple effect when a pebble is thrown into water or like in the movie THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT small actions can have huge consequences!Be good to yourself!You are worth loving and having around in this sometimes harsh,cruel,sick world...remember to think of all the LITTLE blessings we have that many take for granted...the abililty to walk,see,hear,breathe,feel,taste,and most of all to LIVE!Life is a gift though we may sometimes want to return or exchange it...it is still precious!You are precious and very special indeed!

One word to describe it would be beautiful! I love the feeling and emotion it gives off! My fave part is Flashbacks come when razors go,
although they're scars, they hurt me so.
