Cutter

by Laura   May 21, 2006


How could you let this happen?
why cause yourself this pain?
i hope your having fun,
putting emo in front of your name.

if you want to hurt yourself
then there's no stopping you
I've tried time and time again
to help you see your problems through.

i know your life is really bad
but we all go through strife,
you don't see other people
reaching for a knife.

maybe it's not my place
maybe shouldn't care
maybe i shouldn't try so hard
to make sure you know I'm there.

but girl there's no excuse
none really at all,
whenever you think about doing it
just give me a call.

you really worry me with this
the way you act like it's a game
why would it make you proud
to be causing yourself pain?

there are better ways to deal with problems
sometimes you just need to cry
there's no need for cutting
no need to risk your life.

i don't understand you
and probably never will
but that doesn't mean i won't be there
if it's love you need to feel.

your stronger then this
no matter what you say
just watch what your doing
before you throw your life away.

    I can relate to this. I pressured my friend to stop but sometimes that made it even worse for her. In the end I ended up cutting too. I don't think it's that easy to just drop the knife and walk away tho. Some just can't. I'm one of them. Just show her you love and care for her and sometime she'll realize all this and will drop the knife and walk away..but in the end a really great poem

    I love the poem, my g/f is a cutter and well i once was to... if you are still having this problem what ever you do dont pressure her to quit, it wont help. the only thing that will help is just showing her you love her.
