Faker of the Truth

by Jess   Feb 15, 2005


* this poem I wrote is about a girl who I know who dosent self harm but tells everyone that she does and that she is depressed. I just want her to know that we are all so fed up with her lies and I don’t mean to cause any offense to any self harmers!

Your cuts are just scratches
Your tears – they are not real
You are trying to describe emotions
That you can not even feel

You wish that everyone would drop evrything
To come to see if youre ok
Yet you say that we are bullying you
If we just turn away

You pretend you hate your life,
But in fact you do adore
The attention you get
But your constantly craving more

You wear black all the time
You want to be accepted,
But you bring it all on yourself sarah,
That why you are rejected.

People would love to help you
We would all go out of our way
To help you if you were yourself
But you change everyday

You say you try to kill yourself
You say you have it bad
But your lying out of your teeth sarah,
And its making us all mad

If you were telling the truth
If your story was true,
We would try to understand
What you are going through

So yes we have given up on you sarah,
Im sorry if you feel
That we have let you down
But this reality is real

    Wow, I like this a lot, probably beacuse I have a friend who used to do the same thing. She used to scratch herself with broken light bulbs and then she would wear short sleeves so that people could see, and when I tried to ask her if she was ok, she said it was her cat (her cat is declawed). And it made me so angry that she would show these scars to people asking for sympathy, and I really understand how you feel about, Sarah. I think you did a great job expressing your emotions, keep it up.

    Thanks for the comment on my poem too, Email or IM me if you ever want to, I think we might have some things in common.
