The Open Scars Of Friends And Angels

by Cantchangeme   Oct 5, 2004


Cuts are like my hopes
Forgotten long ago
Now my scars are faded
But will never go

Butterfly kiss upon your cheek
A chained up angel, inside weak
Crimson thoughts within your head
Crimson thoughts I've already bled

Yes I am the stupid dirt you know
I am not reformed I cannot say
Cause im a painter with a knife
And there's a clean canvas today

Pritty pictures upon my wrist
Leave crimson thoughts alone
Because me and you we both cut
And were never on our own

Me and you my angel
We are the sad
Me and you my angel
We are the weak
Me and you my angel
Are the bad soul
Me and you my angel
Our devils seek

Cuts are like my hopes
Bleeding out dry
Now the scars re-opened
Me and my angel cry

The smell of roses in you hair
The kinda smell that lingers there
My angel now has long since flown
And now once again im on my own

The knife is my paintbrush
My wrist is my white canvas
Wait an I'll paint a picture
My mind can no longer stand this

Now I have myself a true friend
We both stopped cutting today
Until she becomes another angel
And one night she'll fly away

Me and you my angel
We are the sad
Me and you my friend
We will make it
Me and you my angel
Are the bad soul
Me and you my fiend
Will never be weak

    Are you the angel that must fly away
    That angel of your's that seems to decay
    So far from good your baddness may rein
    But hidden behind angels you hide your true pain
    Why do you cut?
    To take away hurt
    How does it work?
    It diminishes the inner pains that lurk.

    I loved your poem its deep and true and raw. Your real and you know whats out there you comprehend the pain and make good use of literary devices...I hope your angel lets you see another day, write another poem and doesnt let you go away...
