Cutters Lullaby
Go to sleep and close your eyes
And dream of broken butterflies
That tore their wings against a thorn
You know the pain that they’ve endured
Silver metal shine so bright
Scarlet blood that feels so right
Dream of that blood trickling down
And wake up just before you drown
The moonlight shining off your tears
As you bleed out your worst fears
So tonight when you start to cry
Whisper the cutters lullaby:
Hushabye baby, your almost dead
You don’t have a pulse and your pillows red
Your family hates you, yout friends let you bleed
Sleep tight with a knife, cause thats all you need
Rockabye baby, broken and scarred
You didn’t know life would be this hard
Time to end the pain you hid so well
And down you go baby
Straight back to hell

It’s a great pity that this damn world has turned into such a terrible hell for angles like you whose only guilt is that they are so sensitive that they can feel the pains that many others cant.
I’d like to say Rollergirl1234 I understand this poem in my own way of course. I would like to say you did a very good job in writing it as well as the wording you used. In agreement with Tired_wanderer it is a pity that good people who actually have a heart and whom care for others to the point they don’t have time for themselves are feeling so broken due to the feeling of helplessness. The cutting does relieve our stress… Although it builds new stress my dear friend. We just need to compromise and do what we can with what we have. I hope your lullaby ends in a beautifully composed symphony someday. I wish you good luck and fortune, I’m sorry I’m not of much help. Take care.
i understand what your going through…just keep your head up and never let your string of this one thing go….
That was beautiful , i would cut if i could. I take pills instead , same effect..
this just made me tear up
<3
@lydiarose don't say you'd cut it you could, please, it's an addiction for many people and even though we find comfort in it, it isn't something any cutter would wish anyone else was able to do.
I agree with darko, i cut and I wish that my younger friend Tsuki wouldn’t cut. Another friend of mine cuts but only because she got addicted. not the way i got addicted which is for the release but because she enjoys it.
Does no one here know that this isn’t written by her? It’s a pretty internet famous actually.
@betrayingtheworld -No, I noticed it wasn’t original. Lots of things on here aren’t. I was really surprised by how many people lie about something being original, even on here. I mean, why lie on here? Isn’t this like a safe haven type thing? Like the saying “the first rule about fight is don’t talk about fight club”?
This is my fav poem. It is so right and explains so much.
It’s crazy thatI know the person who wrote this. She entered it into a poetry competition and now it’s all over the internet. Her name is Chrisi, and when you enter into competitions they search the web for plagiarism and everything there was no sign of this poem on the internet until she wrote it.
She didn’t right this. Just saying. I absolutely love this poem. The first time I heard it on YouTube it was sung by AniBelle LillyDoll also known as KakashGirl0998. I seriously love her own original poem “emotionless” also on YouTube
This is my favorite poem and i don’t know why
i love this poem.. tomorrow i am going to make a song of it… my youtube is depressed teenage life. but this poem reminds me of myself when i was in the hospital…
