clot by ~Swedish2o:iconSwedish2o:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Human Nature > Open


You cut yourself because you bleed internally
And you need the eternity of pain to clot
So you cut my hands free from their grip
And you watched me lose my grip

You cut yourself to free yourself and now you watch me bleed instead
And you cut me free to become free but now you’re trapped in grief

So watch me bleed externally and you feel pain to the extremity
And you watch my eyes go out and my flesh die off and bleed my organs dry

When you cut yourself you cut our love and you took away our life
When you dragged the edge across my heart the blood ran down your knife

And now you wonder why you still bleed and why you can’t clot

That’s because what you thought would heal you did really not.

thanks, it's actually the one I'm least proud of right now.

what can I say though, I got dumped out of a 15 month relationship and she still says she loves me and wants to get back together, I feel like I'm giving myself false hope.

don't apologize for writng, I wanted you to. I never cut, but she did. Now she doesn't. She used to say that it was because she didn't want to hurt me, but now she says its because she's stronger than that.

I'm 20.

Hey. Yeah, I mean, I guess what she said sort of makes sense, but not really. Because,I cut for a while,and I did it...ALOT. And I have stopped for a few months now, and I keep getting the urge to do it again, but I am really trying to stay strong. But her saying that she did it not to hurt YOU is very strange. I don't quite understand that. Strange, well, like I said, if you wanna talk, i'll listen. Trust me, i've been thru...alot...of er, crap in my life. espicially recently

her name on DA is rubyredshadow if you want to look her up, if you can't look her up directly, I don't know if your're a member, you can find her on who watches me. anyways. she said that she didn't cut to not hurt me because I told her it hurt me to see her hurting herself. I know you'll understand that.

I've never cut, but I do bleed, into the paper with my ink. I love working with ink! mmm sounds like the start of a poem...

Please, I'm trying to make friends on here, I read some of your stuff and I decided I'd message you, I don't usually comment much on here, people are to surface level and shit, but you're not, so that's a good thing. so thank you, yes, I'd love to talk. if you use AIM, my sn is gumigecko

take care,
btw, I'm Aaron.
