My Self Harm

by FountainsOfBlood   Jun 17, 2007


Sometimes I burn myself
Just so see how much it swells
Sometimes I scratch myself
Just to see white marks appear
Sometimes i use razors
Just to see how much it bleeds

Sometimes I burn myself
Just to remember the fires
Sometimes I scratch myself
Just to remember the fights with friends
Sometimes I use razors
Just to remind myself of the abuse

Sometimes I burn myself
To prove I can handle the heat
Sometimes I scratch myself
To prove I can control the marks
Sometimes I use razors
To prove I can withstand the pain

    Your repetition is actually effective for this piece. It's rather an interesting write but nothing special. I do like how it progresses smoothly though. Burning, scratching, and razors. Well, that kinda sums it up but it was interesting with some of the things about it. Hmm...I can't think of any suggestions right now but...I kinda like the second stanza though all went well together.
