Sorry for wasting space on this website. I just feel kin of abandoned and hated. And theirs no one I feel I can trust anymore because I’ve been betrayed so many times. For me I feel that sometimes the only way to stopthe pain is to stop breathing. Forever. Anyway I just decided to post a poem I wrote based on a memmory. Sorry again for wasting space.
evergone
Only a blade
could shatter the sanity
of a child prodegy.
Left alone in an expectant darkness
that seems to slither and writhe around her
she was once told
that pain
is preceeded by fear
then followed
by peace
she was told
a lie.
But stll she craves the pain
children shouldn’t play with knives
it’s dangerous
they all say the danger
is in the childs clumsyness
but it’s her mind
that should scare them.
She only wants
the fear to stop
for the numb to go away.
Somehow.
As the soft dripping of blood
becomes as mesmerizing
and alluring
as the blade itself.
It lulls her
more than any lullaby.
It brings her out of the blackness
and into a soft barable grey.
Where she floats on.
Slowly gliding through the calm
unrill she is sent back down
into the darkness.
Where she fights to break the silence
to be finally heard
at last.
But the silence remains impenetrable
lts a deadly silence
that screams out lies instead of the truth
it’s flashes fake smiles and laughs
even to the end.
Bit it doesn’t say
how knives used to scare her.
Used to fill her with as much terror
as the cold wrinkled eyes o the one
who forgot her so quickly
who’s hug turne into a strangle.
He seems to live in another world
where her face is forign
and to be wary of.
Somtimes he remembers.
Comes back to her.
Giver her a real hug
or a lcing look.
But their always the knife
hidden
under the soft forboding pillow
that lies on his old lap
Not the best I’ve written but it kinda makes me feel better to let this out. Even if I don’t fully understand some parts of it myself. Sorry again for waisting space.

It’s decent but not nearly as good as your cancer poem. Just my opinion. Then again I’ve never been a cutter, and though I’ve roommated with a few of them over the years I really don’t understand the cutting phenomena. My thing has always been punching a wall. The last time I took out a cupboard, it tore up my hand and blood splattered on the wall. But that was six months ago and I haven’t felt the need to go “there” again since. Plus it cost me $150 to replace the cupboard. I suppose I understand cutting a bit, just not passionately. A decent poem though nonetheless.
Yeah. I’ve been sort of loosing my poeticness or whatever. Nothing seems to flow easily anymore. I’ll try again and see where that gets me. Thank you for your opinion though.
No problem. If I try to sit down and write one it usually doesn’t come out very good. So lately my true moments of inspiration have been at the oddest times, where I have to ask someone if they have a pencil and paper handy so that I can write. Usually people think it’s pretty strange. No big deal though.
I was thinking a bit ago about how there are a lot of teenagers on this website. The 2006 suicide stats (the latest year that has suicide statistics) show that white males aged 20-25 kill themselves far more than other other group, in America at least. But I’m not surprised that there’s a lot of teenagers on here. I’ve been through so much since I was a teenager I sort of forgot what it was like. But now that I spent some time thinking about it, I remember that it was completely a fucking nightmare. The bulk of my memories from age 8-19 just has the feel of a pain cloud of blocked-out memories, I think I blocked a lot of it out, the memories from then just have the feel that I served out a long sentence. K-12 is like prison, I’m amazed that I survived it. After I dropped out when I was 15 I was homeless from then until 25, save for a couple years indoors from working 50-hr weeks and barely paying the rent, and of course, dying inside. But with all the hell in the homeless world, I have to say that it was better than school, and given the choice again between the two I would take the cardboard box! How is school these days? It looks like a fucking nightmare, from the looks of it far more cruel than when I was in school. I feel for you guys, seriously. And even though school can be such a cruel experience I still recommend that everyone stay in there as long as they can, because school is basically the way to a happy life. No two ways about it. No matter where you go, everyone thinks they’re the shit, it’s 100% about them and they’d prefer it to be 0% about you, everything revolves around the dollar, you have it they worship you you don’t have the dollar and they assume the worst things imaginable about you and will treat you accordingly to those little thoughts of theres. If you can soldier your way through school and abusive homes (I come from an abusive home and I imagine in this economy that many if not all of you do as well), at least you will have dollars, and from there you can do whatever you want, even be a good person if that’s what you want to do. Damn, that was one hell of a run-on sentence.
you are okay i think you are going to make it
I don’t think I’ve ever read anyone so apologetic for posting online. Poems are cool. They don’t really have to make sense. Just express them the way you want. There will always be someone who understands.
Suicide Prevention in Your Life
Well I am apologetic because I seriously believe and know that that poem was horrible and a compleat waste of space. And idk. How do you interprit it. What do you think it means.
