Today..

Stabbing my own pale skin,

What kind of messed up world do we live in?

I hate my life, I hate everything in it..

Clamping my tongue so I cannot scream it.

Why am I so bloody worthless?

Why is the standard so close to perfect?

I deserve all my pain.

I truly am the one to blame.

this person sounds like she's in the middle of an anxiety attack. the desperation comes through. she blames herself when she shouldn't. she's hurt. you don't deserve your pain. you just have to learn to cope with it or let the ones who care about you the most help you get through this. a cry for help. great poem.

that truly made me cry i went through a phase where I thought I was worthless and nobody loved me. How wrong was I. I'm sure it's the same for everybody. That was a beautiful touching piece of poetry.

I know how you feel... just know you're not alone.

People place blame on others so they don't have to take responsibility for their actions. I think this causes us all to " talk down to ourselves". For years I found myself saying nothing but, I'm sorry". I finally realized as I screamed, "It Is Not All My Fault!"
Scream, cry, and after you feel a bit better, please know that we really don't see ourselves as others do.
I See a Beautiful Woman trying to make it through this tumultuous world. You have many gifts within. One of them being the written word! You are Not Alone, and are Cared For! Namaste my S.I.S.= Sister In Spirit ~ Jude :-)

Without suffering there will be no compassion. I felt this girls pain cuz I was there once. Maybe I still am I dont know. But just know that this write is really good and deep. It effects so many readers in multitudes of ways. It depends how they take it. This is a good way to express the feelings that you obtain and leave a mark on the ones who will never experience this kind of pain. Good job

Though there is great pain in your words I find them composed wonderfully. There is a art here, a art of emotion and you express yourself in a way that leaves a lasting impression.
