My Story

I look in the mirror and what do I see

a woman that is fat and ugly.

I take the razor blade and drag it across my wrist

watching it cut through the skin like butter.

The welling blood pours through the cut

to the kleenex I hold underneath.

 

Soaked with the red crimson life

it looks so appealing.

I bring the wound to my mouth and suck on it,

oh the life giving necture.

Looking back in the mirror I still see her

the woman that is ugly and fat and very alone.

Another cut, another line,

can't stop now.

 

 

No more cuts, no more time,

now I go to the tattooist.

The pain of the art on my body

replaces that of the razor blade.

Will I ever heal from the hurts inside?

Will I ever cope? Will I look to the life outside?

Instead of wishing for the razor blade?

 

Life had come to a screetching halt,

darkness sublime.

Over the years it no longer matters,

death is my time.

I love the feel of the razor blade,

no longer do I fear.

 

 

Author notes

I am a cutter or was till about 6 months ago. I started cutting when my grandmother died. And my bipolar came to the surface. At first I wondered how it would feel then I learned to like it. I have cut for 6 long years but now I no longer do instead I am substituting tattoos for cutting.



I realize this is probably a crappy poem and a very short explination but I do/did cut and still desire to do so. But rahter then screw up the tattoos I now have I instead just wait till I have the money for atattoos

    Cutting is a painful yet sadly addicting release, i'm glad you aren't anymore and that you took another addiction, one a little less frowned upon. I like this write though, i know to an extent how you may feel.
    Keep up the good works
