Kiss me
Please make me cry
Oh to dizzy hazy
Will you save me?
Take away my much forgotten pain
I tell you I love you
You hear nothing
You hug me
I feel nothing
I too need to feel your love
Memories come back
When you gripped my hand and held me tight at night
You tried the other night
Just pushed you away…
“Get out, I’m busy”, I say
“I’m just here to be with you”, you whispered
As you walked out I laughed
Thinking I didn’t care
Oh mother, why can’t you see
We need to remember
All those days I cried for you
All the days now that I cry
Free at last
But in so much pain
I don’t want any human contrast
Just to be me, and let you see I’m not really happy
Would you gawk at me if I lifted up my sleeve?
Ragged, stained, knife marks on my arm
Layers of skin off my ankle, burnt to the cores
Who ever said smile, it means you’re happy?
Who are they to say?
You just wouldn’t even know me anymore
I want to be taken away
Live…. But it’s not my time
“Someday”, they all say to me
I know now…it will be someday
Picking up the scissors, carving away at blank skin
Flicking my lighter, burning away new skin
A single tear flows down my cheek
The release of pain feels to go to take
Sitting back, looking at the new “decorations”
Pick my emotions off the floor
Roll down my sleeves; put my jeans and socks back on
Wipe my single tear
"Someday", I whisper…
 
I don't even know what to say. It sounds so corny to just say "you moved me", but you really did. I know I don't know who you are or anything, but I hope that everything will be ok for you, and not just someday, but someday soon.

Not to take away from the message of the poem, but how common is it for females in their teens and 20's to ritualistically cut their arms in times of emotional duress? I dated a girl once who did this a couple of times. I tried to get her to talk to a counselor about it, but she always ignored my pleas.
