Shattered Promise
written by XsouredXfaithX08:15 AM 2/13/05Down my leg, blood is flowing
The pain is finally going
After so long
I have done what i do not find wrong
More scars to add to my collection
Because of pain,hatred, deception
More pain has been brought to me
But i have hidden so that the world cant see
I stopped but habits die hard
These will soon become just another scar
After the first time i said never again
And so i put up a plastic grin
I started living a lie
And inside i started to die
It became to much to bear
I had no one there to care
I wanted so bad for the pain to subside
But,not yet, do i wish to commit suicide
So i fought for weeks to come
Slowly becoming more numb
I didnt want to, i had made a promise
So i secretly cried in silence
They had found out once and i saw their pain
I did not want them to have more shame
I fought for days and days
Searching for another way
Sadly none came to mind
And i was running short of time
I did not want to break the promise i made
but the tears were becoming more like rain
But last night i gave in
To the screaming voices from within
The pain felt so good to me
And i know more cuts there will soon be
Only problem i shattered something i hold near
A promise made to someone dear |

| I can feel EXACTLY how you do. Th eline about blood dripping down your leg...reminded me of a day in school when I cut my leg with a brand new scalpel and had to get back to Spanish, so I had to walk back to class with blood dripping down my leg. At least I was wearing black pants! I loved your poem I felt it completely. I guess the pain of cutting is everywhere, I have to hide it too. Can't exactly wear bathing suits anymore. :) |
