Please Don't Cut

Self Harm

For all of you who ain't comfortable in your own skin,

Fighting everyday just to win.

No! Just to survive,

Hurtin' yourself everyday just to feel alive. 

Please don't cut . 

This rhyme is for givin' some hope for you to get outta this rut. 

Believe me , I've been there,

I've been out. Gimme a shout

And lemme know that you've fought .

The temporary relief you get,

The instant regret. I've felt it all.

So please don't cut.

"You're fat, you're ugly"

You can fight or you can flee!

Don't let words hurt you.

People who care are so few.

For all of those who've had enough,

I think of you as an angel in the rough.

So put away the razors,

Put away the blades.

Even if it is late,

You can always see the light. 

Open your doors and know that I'm right.

For all those who feel alone,

Your only friend is not the knife.

I thought the same ,I went insane, 

And nearly died of shame!

Once you lose it, you might die ,

You can't lie even if you try,

And you definitely can't hide!

Don't feel tired. Stand up strong.

Feel revived and please don't cut.

Just try to get outta this s****y rut!

Nothing's gonna change,

You'll just destroy yourself with your rage.

You can either faint 

Or choose to paint,

Your own world,The bright world 

The one you've always wanted to live in.

So please just don't cut,Just get outta this rut!

This is a good message to post to those thinking about or actually cutting themselves. In their goal to "feel something" they are setting themselves up for feeling horrible when they get older and have to wear long shirts in the heat. It is wrong to cut.

You can't label it as "wrong" .
But it's definitely not the right way either. People need to know that they are loved and wanted. :)
Thank you for your review. Really appreciate it.
