Please wont somebody save me?

The cuts get deeper everyday,
Expressing words my mouth cant say,
Making my sorrow go away,
But only for a while.

I slit and slit hoping to reach a vein,
Letting the blood release my pain,
At the end of the day, I really don't gain,
But still I carry on.

When I get angry or upset,
I turn to the best escape I know yet,
And the wonderful feeling that I get,
Is so very beautifully numb.

In that moment my mind is clear,
Rid of all the hope and fear,
When I'm sad my blade's always near,
The best friend Ive ever had.

When I self harm I can forget about,
The times my parents scream and lash out,
When they kick and beat and yell and shout,
And make me cry crimson once more.

My brain at that moment blocks out the bad things,
When I get hit until it stings,
When I watch my drunk mum and the pain it brings,
It is banished from me then.

I wish you could understand how I want to die,
How I wish I could jump and finally fly,
How I cut and cut and cry and cry,
I wish so very much.

I wish someone would set me free,
Take me away from this hell; reality,
This wasn't how it was meant to be,
Please wont somebody save me?

    This is another great one. My fave lines were: "Is so very beautifully numb" because of the irony in it. And "...make me cry crimson once more." The way it's structured is awsome, loving it.
