unknown tittle

Do people know that what the say hurt?
It's like what they say sinks inside.
stay with you for the rest of your life.
It doesn't stop echoing and repeating inside your head.
Then finally you SNAP.
you look around for something for release.
opening a box you find a scissors,
hold up your wrist, and let it slide across.
its not right, but it feels so good
your punishing yourself for not being good enough
thinking you deserve the pain
carving every single hurtful damaging word in your skin.
a tear then falls from your eyes and mixes up with the blood that runs from the cut.
Its the effect that has you hooked
The effect is releasing some of the hate an anger in yourself, the disappointment when looking at yourself in the mirror,and not feeling so trapped.

No one should have to go

No one should have to go through the pain that you are writing about. I'm sorry that you were treated this way! But, if I may, I believe that this pain is what will be helpful towards powering out poems. Great write!

The power of words

No one deserves the pain you write about. Yes, I have been hurt by brutal words too, but I have, slowly, learned to let them go. Don't punish yourself - be who you are, and love that being. Powerful poem.
