cries and cuts

poem by: Taylor Blair
Written on May 22, 2013 

She pushes away anyone
who tires to care
she locks away the feelings
she runs from his emotions 
until no one is around
then cries and cries and cries 
until she has no more 
tears left to cry
she has scars and cuts 
too show how many times 
she has tried 
to let the pain out 
but it doesn't work
all the pain, sorrow, frustration, 
all the sadness gets 
bottled up inside
she has tried to stop 
tried to talk 
but she cant it
feels so good the knife
cutting into her skin 
watching the blood coming 
out of her body she feels
as if she is in a paradise 
her own little world
its as if she is addicted to it 
no matter how hard she tries
she cant stop
some mornings she wakes up
crying because she never wanted
to wake up
she lies in her bed and 
cries and cuts and cries and cuts

Shallowness trails behind Her unsteady mind She's so unaware of her loose fitting ways, Her frequent mishappening, Of her misleading character. She knows no destination For her actions lead her nowhere But in a circumfere... Read more
