Cutting is my Life

I don't cut because i want to die.

I don't cut because i wish to get attention.

I don't cut because i dont care for myself.

I dont cut to be emo

..................................................................

I cut for many reasons:

To show i'm alive,

that i'm still able to feel,

and able to bleed.

...................................................................

I'm sorry if you do not like seeing my scars,

but they tell a story of the past.

How i felt and how i grew.

Cutting is precious.

.....................................................................

I cut to take away all the words.

Truthfully cutting does make me feel better.

I cut to get ready for the future.

Whether theres a god or not, cutting is my truth.

I know you think i'm crazy, but tell me this:

Why did you pick this poem,

when you saw the title?

Were you interested?

...................................................................................

If you don't like cutting, tell me why its so bad!

If you do tell my why you do.

Theres no shame in letting out your feelings.

Even if its with a knife
