Apologetic Blood

by Baby Rainbow   Apr 2, 2013


I cannot cope with the feeling of guilt,
knowing I have let you down. To know that
I have hurt someone who means the world to me,
it breaks my heart in half.
The shiny blade shouts out my name
to remind me I need punished. You do not hurt
the ones you love, but I do not love myself.

It feels like everything I do, will hurt you
in some way. I get so scared of what comes next,
that I start to run away. The only thoughts that
now remain, are of the pain I caused your heart.
The only solution I know how to find, is to
apologize with my guilty blood.

You will never know how sorry I am
for the fact that I am me. I have these scars
that remind me each day of the mistakes
I always make. And every day these scars whisper
to me, all of the reason why I have to walk away.

    I get that, and I think it's actually very well written.

    Everything you write is your best work, it's all your emotion and what needs to written should be.

    Okay, Saffie.

    I'm gonna be real honest with you....

    I understand exactly what you're saying here...trust me, I do.

    The second stanza kind of caught me and made me stumble, it's the ending of that stanza. Maybe a word rearrange would work there, just the flow was a bit stop and go...

    Not to say I didn't think this was good, you're emotions here were really powerful,
    I felt them inside, and girl, you're strong, sometimes it's the hard things that we need to do because some people don't get you, some people can be right d***s and be so judgemental that they don't see the beauty in you.

    Keep going babes x
