Scars dont lie

Scars dont lie

A Poem by Perfect Mistake

Zoey you are beautiful

NO IM NOT

You’re amazing

STOP LYING

You’re perfect

STOP!

 

Its killing me

All these false comments

 

Your making me feel worse

Im not anything;

 

I AM the definition of WORTHLESS

 

No one will ever love me

I don’t even like me

 

I run back to my gagged razor sharp friend

Who shows me how imperfect I am.

 

These scars don’t lie

I can relate, though now it's only certain people who make me feel this way, like my ex. I'v learned to deal with most people, and it's good that you have, too. This is a very strong and emotional piece. Thank you.

I can relate to this piece. I agree with points in it. I don't like myself either, but sometimes that is just how it is. Other times my opinion completely changes. I feel worthless too, but cutting is never the answer no matter how much it makes you feel good...eventually that life style could kill someone....you will cut to deep...and you could bleed to death. Great write though. Strong emotions. Thanks for sharing.

Blood and pain teaches us we can bleed and we are alive. The razor is temporary relief. We must open new doors and allow the scars to teach us. Powerful thoughts leading readers to a strong ending.

Thank you for the outstanding poetry.

I feel like that a lot and it's hard to ignore. self loathing is emotionally consuming and your right it's worse when someone lies to you about it.

Depressing, i understand this very well. I was like that before. It's hard. But don't worry, compliments helps you know. =) This is really good! Love it! Keep writing!

This is sad and very touching. I feel pretty much the same ALL the time! Great work :)

I remember when i was like this. Wait, i still am. .......poop.
I think most teenage girls go through the "I am the fattest and ugliest beast on this planet" phase. I know lots of people who are like that, and when people take it to extremity i just assume they're just fishing. It's hard to tell who has low self esteem these days. Maybe it's all of us.
i digress....
I really like the abruptness and truth of this poem, the way you wrote it is perfect. It's really relatable, a trait i love in a poem.
Awesome job (take that compliment, it's true!! :) )
