I'm a cutter

by Alissa   Dec 18, 2005


I'm your daughter
I'm your friend
I'm your sister
I'm a cutter

I'm your little girl
The life you brought in this world
The one you grew to teach
Following the rules that you preach

I'm your best friend
Listens to you and helps you mend
Laughing, gossiping at night
In battles together we fight

I'm your sister
Through out life's twister
Sharing memories together growing up
Both experiencing the same stuff

Secretly, I'm a cutter
Imagen me telling this to my mother
To my sister, to my friend
"This knife is how my pain begins to end"
Trapped inside can't get out
It feels like I'm on mute when I shout

I'm your daughter but thats not it
I have a habit that I can't quit
I slice my wrist in time of pain
In my mind I am going insane

I'm your friend but thats not all
I go six feet under when I fall
I'm stuck buried alive
My happiness just did I nose dive

I'm your sister but there is more
My feelings and my heart just tore
I dig at myself with the knife
Thinking of ways to end my life

I'm a cutter addicted to the scars
I feel like I'm in a jail cell trapped in bars
There is no other way to get out
Healing is starting to fall into doubt
I am not just what I appear to be
I am so much more then you actually see
