(shiver)

I don't want to be here,
HElp me, I need a blade,
A knife, a candle, anything.
I wnat to hurt. let me bleed.
I'm not running anymore.
from myself.
Only i know.
The numbness won't last
when the blade slices the skin,
when the blood runs down my wrist.
Scabbing up and ripping, only to see it flow
once more.
let it burn, sting and hurt
make the tears run down my cheek;
burning up inside, too hot to control
PLEASE go away.
SHUT UP and leave
you CAN'T help...
no one ever does
let the flames whip my raw skin
until they tire (i don't care)
oh please! i can't stand the noise
of the silence you've caused
but, stop the shouting (that continues)
in my head
stop pretending i'm okay
i'm NOT
i can no longer withstand
my knees are bending,
i'm ready to give up...
my bones are acheing,
and my head is screaming
"give up, let down. you can never acheive.
Let go. stop trying. you're wasting your time"

this is a real emotional one for me. i don't like talking about it... but... it still sends shivers down my spine. i can't believe I wrote that... its scares the shit outta me.
