Breaking the skin

Breaking the skin

A Poem by Kira
"

I love the taste of blood.

"

Scraping roughly up and down

The length of my forearm

With water steaming

All around me

Thinnest

red.

 

Trying to get the razor dug in

But all it will do is small

Sharp tears and the

Pain is more than

I would have

Imagined.

 

I bring my lips to the smallest

Cuts, taste it flowing out

Of me like some sort

Of deranged

Vampire

Parody.

 

I slump against the wall with

The blade in my hand,

And I think, is this

What it's like

To be

crazy?

This really broke my heart :( I used to cut myself with all sorts of stuff.
I know how it feels---- So much pain, but how do you get rid of it? Cutting. A very sick outlet, but for me, it felt like the only way. I was only hurting myself right!! But no--- your hurt so many more. Those who love you, friends, family, everyone.
My advice to you is stop. I stopped. It took a lot of strength. But you will not regret. Nothing can hurt more than cutting yourself.
Get help, before you do to much damage!! Plz message me if you want to talk about it. I've been there and done it. I know what it's like.
God bless xxx
