The Real Problem

by Heather M Craig   Mar 29, 2005


Mutilation and suicide tie
in an interesting craze,
the pain behind their eyes
led them to these "ways".

Abuse from broken habitat,
molestation starting early,
tormented as the worlds doormat,
nothing is all they see.

To turn to such methods
in search of a greater peace
but you can be anything you wanted
if the pain was just released.

The power of the blade,
the drugs, the bullets too,
you think it'll all fade
but the problem is in you!

Heather M Craig

--Looking through these sad poems and all I see is "My Suicide", "Suicide Letter", and things about cutting. I am no one to judge you because I've been down that road once before but what many of you lack to realize is that the mutilation is a temporary fix to a problem you are leaving permanent, to suceed in depression you must acknowledge and be content with you are....and that's not impossible to find, patience is your virtue...You can be anything you want to be! Stay Strong, my heart goes out to all of you!---
