They say

They say

A Poem by Perfect Mistake

They say all wounds heal

yeah they do into scars

 

They say your scars are who you are

so im the girl who loved the pain of cutting?

 

They say you dont need so much eye liner

If i dont youll see how mych i dont sleep at night

 

They say i wont judge you

then you go about questioning me and my sanity

 

They say im crazy

I say that im stable most of the times

 

They say your family always loves you

Yeah well love matters not with blood

You and I, we have this connection. It's like I see myself through your work. Wounds might physically heal but there is no emotional wound that does. Most people don't understand cutters. =[

i love the poem because everything they say is wrong or contradictory and the ending just ties it all together. Great job Keep it up

Haha, you crack me up always saying you need to add more. This was a great poem, the layout was perfect, and the resigned hopelessness of the message really shone through.

yeah it needs more, but other than that it's awesome! I can relate to it :) good work ^-^

I like it. I like your direction and the ending is like a slap in the face. Take the (is) outta the last stanza btw.. other than that awesome work.

I kinda agree. There is more to be added to this as a poem. I do like the style, generally, as a poem with the 'what they say and what they mean' style with the italics :) It adds interest and gives a meaning of personal influence.

Though I hope you don't think any of these things in real life - because it's the thoughts of someone who goes about life either in the wrong way or with the wrong understanding is what makes the poem the great point. :P

This as a poem is kinda what makes it interesting - as a poem it's very intriguing as a concept. As a person, I'd rather help set these (non)'problems' strait :P Thanks for sharing, very thought prevoking xD
