Array ( [sid] => 48194 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Picking up the pieces [time] => 2004-05-19 04:24:54 [hometext] => I try everyday and say thats not how I was...am..I still like this...and then think I havent gotton any help..I am Im a cutter...aw jeez!!! [bodytext] => "Picking up the pieces"

I find myself
Panicking
I pick up the blade
Wishing all I can do is fade
I’m lost
And won’t be found
I may be laying on the ground
But o well
It’s my choice
I’ll be gone
I have a way of channeling out your voice
Your gone
Can’t be found
There’s a sound
My cry
As I slide the blade across my skin
And hope that I die
What is it you ask?
Why?
My choice
It’s good
I have this thing that makes me cry
Makes me feel
I know now that I’m real
I see differently
Literally
The floor tilts
I can’t see straight
I’m picking up the pieces
So that you don’t have to do it
I’m trying hard to feel
I’m trying to find truth
I have an answer
If all else fails
My next choice
Is the best choice
I’ll be gone
Far away
You will think of me everyday
You will then say
And begin to ask
The same question before I die
That is why?
You chose this route
I was weak
You were strong
This is where everything went wrong
I’ll remember your song
That was for me
Before I said so long
I am gone
You are so far
Driving down the 101 in your car
Thinking about
Your next move
You pull back
Realize that you wont do that
For me
I ask you this please
don’t you do it
Why?
Do you put this on me
Think back
Far back
Why did you make me cry
I was gonna ask you why
Why?
Did you let me die?
I always use to say
We should never say Good-Bye
That was the 2 worst words to me
I would say no!!!
Bye
Buh-Bye
Later
So long
Not Good-Bye
I guess that’s changed
I’m gone
That’s what should be said
As much as it hurts to say now
Now that you know it’s true
Good-Bye
Picking up the pieces
To what was left before
I had to go
I had to walk out your door
You looking at my back
Knowing you’ll never see it again
You hated it
I cherished it
For the fact I was strong
But not really
I was a coward
And I’m sorry
That I had to leave like that
I’m gone and it feels good
No more worries, No more bad thoughts
I’ve completed my journey
In reality, this is it I have died

I understand how you feel. In more ways than one. It kind of touched my heart about the part of saying Good-bye. I always hate saying Good-bye in fear that its almost like I'll never see that person again. So I never do say Good-bye. But I guess some people just dont understand. Well I thought it was a good write. Keep up the good work! ~Stace~

very good poem. I used to (and still) struggle with cutting, but its an addiction and like any addiction it CAN be beaten. Just realize that you are strong (as opposed to a line in your poem when you said you were weak) just keep on fighting and be aware that one day the sun will poke through the clouds.

Your poetry is passionate. You have the emotion there and I think your writing is pretty much straight from the heart. Passion makes good poetry, no one can be taught to write a good poem. That is a good poem. Being a cutter isn't necessarily a dead end, to cut is to have a release, I know but you can release it in other ways. Poetry is a great way but do you play an instrument? Your poetry flows really well and most are written like a song. Music is another way of releasing emotion. In conclusion, I like your poetry, it cuts through your heart.
