you can't stop me

"Please stop," you plead

as I let my arm bleed.

I hear you banging on the door 

and I see my blood on the floor.

I hear you struggling with the door knob

I let out a sob.

I hear you saying "don't do it, don't do it",

as I look at the skin I split

"please don't, please don't", is all you said

as I continue to mark lines of red.

I hear you crying out "STOP"!

while I watch my blood drop.

I hear all of your cries

while I start slitting open my thighs.

I hear you searching for the key.

I smile, because no matter what, you can't stop me.

I agree with Alias with the punctuation thing, but you might want to look into capitalization and spelling(That's one of my biggest pet peeves). Also, this poem reminded me that there are sad things that people do because of their... Okay, I'm not a master of depression and self-cutting and the like, but you know what I mean(I hope, because I can't explain it). Just promise me you aren't cutting yourself, and if you are, try to find help, Okay? It's not that I don't like this (because I do), but it could eat to worse things.

I actually like the lack of punctuation, I think the point of this is that its raw. That's what makes it relatable and even frightening. You can't capture a broken mind or a broken person with commas and grammar, the point is that you write what you feel, and you write it well
